Key Points

The study aims to assess the potential impact of ending CDC funding for HIV testing on new infections across different states.
Modeling study conducted across 18 states
Analysis focused on rural and urban HIV epidemics
Forecasting new infections based on current testing practices
Significant increases in new HIV infections predicted with funding cuts
Higher impacts observed in states with rural epidemics
Demonstrates the critical role of CDC funding in preventing HIV spread

Implication

Modeling study shows increased HIV infections in rural areas if CDC funding is cut, indicating important prevention roles.
