Summary
The implementation of new biomedical forms of HIV prevention since 2015 has been accompanied by a 40% reduction in HIV diagnoses in gay and bisexual men in New South Wales (NSW). Reductions in HIV have been much smaller in the overseas-born, the young, and in those living outside of inner Sydney. We propose a 5-year program of implementation research, integrated with the NSW HIV Strategy 2021-25, which will see NSW become the first jurisdiction globally to virtually eliminate HIV.
