摘要
To monitor HIV incidence we tested a cohort of men who have sex with men in Montreal for HIV every 6 months. Between 1996 and 2001, 17 out of 1244 participants seroconverted, for an HIV incidence of 0.56 per 100 person-years (py) (95% CL 0.29, 0.83). The incidence decreased over the study period, from 0.75 to 0.34 per 100 py; which was not statistically significant. Am in-depth evaluation of the situation in Montreal could identify useful lessons for prevention efforts elsewhere.
