Abstract

Abstract The lower rates of HIV in NSW were temporarily associated with less unprotected anal intercourse with casual partners and more serosorting in New South Wales (NSW) than other states. There was substantially more investment in HIV prevention and a stronger relationship between the State Government and the community in NSW compared with other states. If this additional investment in HIV prevention was responsible for the lower rates of HIV transmission in NSW, then the cost for each prevented case of HIV was A 31250. ? CSIRO 2008.
