Understanding temporal trends in HIV prevalence, incidence and ARV Dr Valerie Delpech Head of HIV surveillance Public Health England
How do we measure TasP at the population level? 2
Challenges of Test and Treat Efficacy versus effectiveness Individual versus public health benefit Feasibility and acceptability Ethics Resistance and toxicity Role of primary HIV infection in transmission MSM versus heterosexual epidemics Role of undiagnosed HIV in transmission Linkage to care and access to ART 3 3
?Elimination or ?decrease in incidence /new HIV infections ?Elimination or ?reduction in AIDS deaths ?Impact on STIs How do we monitor our successes and failures? Hard measures – ‘surveillance’ data in key populations new diagnosis, AIDS and non AIDS deaths late diagnosis, linkage and retention in care, testing and treatment uptake, viral suppression – ‘continuum of care STI rates, behavioural data Estimates incidence, undiagnosed infections Should NOT be used as ‘substitute’ for surveillance What is successful Treatment as Prevention?

Conclusions and Public health relevance Successes (and failures) of public health policies including TasP can be measured using basic routine surveillance data for key risk groups and over time Accurate and comprehensive (representative) data and clear consistent methodologies are key for tracking progress HIV surveillance data should be linked to vital statistics death data CD4 data are extensively used to track the epidemic – late diagnosis, link to care, retention in care, back-calculation estimates, as well as evaluation of treatment guidelines, estimates of incidence and undiagnosed VL – provide insight into success of treatment programs and ongoing transmission Other markers are also important – STI and behavioural data Clinical dashboards at the local level in key populations provide accountability and can drive improvements 29Presentation title - edit in Header and Footer
