Abstract

In recent years, phylogenetic analysis of HIV sequence data has been used in research studies to investigate transmission patterns between individuals and groups, including analysis of data from HIV prevention clinical trials, in molecular epidemiology, and in public health surveillance programs. Phylogenetic analysis can provide valuable information to inform HIV prevention efforts, but it also has risks, including stigma and marginalization of groups, or potential identification of HIV transmission between individuals. In response to these concerns, an interdisciplinary working group was assembled to address ethical challenges in US-based HIV phylogenetic research. The working group developed recommendations regarding (1) study design; (2) data security, access, and sharing; (3) legal issues; (4) community engagement; and (5) communication and dissemination. The working group also identified areas for future research and scholarship to promote ethical conduct of HIV phylogenetic research.

Author

Killelea, Amy

Abstract

The article discusses the need for more advocacy to ensure that the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare, can improve access to HIV prevention, care, and treatment. Issues to consider concerning Medicaid expansion include state decisions to expand Medicaid, Medicaid benefits for the newly eligible, and outreach and enrollment. The need to ensure that the Ryan White Program continues to provide the services needed to link people with HIV to and retain them in care is also stressed.
