TY - JOUR AU - Ohl, Michael E. AU - Perencevich, Eli PY - 2011 DA - 2011/09/01 TI - Frequency of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing in urban vs. rural areas of the United States: Results from a nationally-representative sample JO - BMC Public Health SP - 681 VL - 11 IS - 1 AB - Studies in the United States show that rural persons with HIV are more likely than their urban counterparts to be diagnosed at a late stage of infection, suggesting missed opportunities for HIV testing in rural areas. To inform discussion of HIV testing policies in rural areas, we generated nationally representative, population-based estimates of HIV testing frequencies in urban vs. rural areas of the United States.
