New @amfAR analysis finds CDC-funded CBOs are 5x more effective at detecting new HIV diagnoses than healthcare settings. Cutting funding could mean 6,840 missed diagnoses, 1,993 avoidable infections, and $1B in costs. Protect CBO funding: bit.ly/save-hiv-services

@amfAR research found CDC-funded CBOs identified new diagnoses at 3x the rate of health departments and linked people to care faster across every demographic group. That’s why direct CBO funding matters. Join us in demanding Congress protect PS21-2102. Take action: bit.ly/save-hiv-services.
