initiative i wanted to provide you with an update on where we are with this collaboration in which the department of public health is playing a key role hopefully whoops let's go back so our goal is to get to zero new hiv infections and zero stigma an association associated with hiv they're that's our primary goal in san francisco i want to tell you we're getting towards zero i'm going to tell you how we ambulance to get to zero so we've actually made tremendous progress we started with over one thousand infections in the year 2000 so i am showing you through 2008 to 2014 the 2014 numbers are not

out pubically ensue i got them if our arc unit the emancipation proclamation dissolution unit the full report is out next month as you can see we have actually decreased the number of new infections the hiv diagnoses from over one thousand down to 3 hundred and 2 last year that's a 70 percent reduction we've also made headway in terms of deaths down to hundred and have 77 deaths amongst people diagnosed with hiv only 1/3rd are hiv associated some are just the normal result of aging and sort of we're trying to get them down as closed to zero as soon as possible and there are a couple of things that made a

tremendous impact one was that the health department come out pubically in 2010 along with the san francisco general hospital clinic recommending everyone with hiv be treated immediately and not wait until their cell phone count was low to be substantive to infections that is now the world health associations recommendation global so we really were you are ahead of the curve and the first city to implement the prep demonstration project it is preexposure to taking a daily combination of one pill for people during their seasons of risk of quasi hiv if people take that on a daily basis the

success rate maybe over 90 percent so we started the first prep demonstration project in 2012 and think we need both treatment and preservation to get to zero we couldn't get there without you and the help and support of dpupt and the city and county overall this agency as a result of infrastructure that you helped to build from the beginning of the epididymis in treatment and funding entering into collaborations with community basis organization and providing ongoing support and multi year commitment to get to zero we're building on that very solid base to turn that skufsh to get us to zero we we couldn't have done it without you without the political support but everything starting with the community the way to get to zero initiative

came from a community town hall we held we held a community town hall every year in celebration of world aids day it was called getting to zero in emphasizing a lively safety net presentations with the audience and . >> community member said that is all well and good how are you working together this started us thinking we need to move to a collective impact not only the collaborations but commitment of groups for common agenda to solve this problem there is a formalized way that began the launch of getting to zero we started in 2014 and so our vision to achieve this aids

vision of getting to zero we believe we can get to the first jurisdiction in the world to get to zero the way we're doing that we believe we no idea to improve the health of people living with hiv and create additional initiative programs to bring down new infection rates and address stigma this is not a hunt alone issue we need the collaborative and the support and funding from multiple entities and we're already serving as an example to other cities that also come from amsterdam and paris and other cities within the u.s. and presenting our progress in the society meeting in vancouver in a week and a half or so i wanted to tell you what ear done most

recently we've director barbara garcia had a pointed out we had this original group that started the initiative bans this live community forum we know we needed to expand and director barbara garcia was clear we needed to expand to reach the - work with people that are working with those populations that are most challenged people of color and transgender individuals men having sex with men and added four members to the steering committee representing those are groups had 7 consortium meeting and many smaller meetings we've tried to expand the recommendation on each the committees as well as the development of initiatives to move forward our goal not only to have guaranteeing we'll get to zero but up u come up with

concrete programs with milestones and deliverables and to track our progress we have a commitment to report back every year on our progress and did that on december 1st director barbara garcia was at our presentation we start with 3 initiatives we couldn't try to side everything all at once to expand the prophylaxis program citywide to expand our rapid program feet h getting people that are newly diagnosed back into care and comprehensive program i wanted to point out that the san francisco department of public health is really the first large sponsor of the initiative we have 1 point plus million dollars for community-based organizations prep deliver at dpw clinics and

expansion of our linkage program citywide and just put in an application to the centers for disease control and preservation for $1.9 million per year to expand prep and the extension efforts and ushering with other foundations and other donors we expect to have large additional grants coming in the getting to zero again, we're not reilly solely on dpw but briefly cover the 3 committees the prep committee is the faster moving it is the newest development and we have a long way to go we have a decline in new hiv diagnoses we don't think that is due to prep but prep placed an important role in driving it

down we've divide this group into 3 sub groups for the providers and again san francisco has been at the first and foremost of providing prep the rest of the country is following behind some more slowly than others but we can completely will change the face of epidemic and people that benefit the most from prep are linked to services if they deserve to take prep and measure the impact does it have a positive impact are we seeing break to tell us in preparing or resistance we know of one case of a person denied life insurance because he was on preparing we want to minimize the cases of denial for

preparing the rapid committee is rapid initiative for hiv diagnoses we have been doing linkage to care when i talk about that we get people into care but lose them quickly we lose them because they're not really linked immediately if that if you diagnose someone in a clinical setting but we'll try to get you into care but at all r call those 5 numbers they can easing easily be lost to care there was a pilot program it has been highly successful people find is successful as soon as people are diagnosed to get them to a provider to get them not only the medical services and the treatment but the social and

linkage to care those hutchings of rapid linkage and then they can get referred to their medical home there is not a gap while they're trying to figure out where the home is we will expand that to the rest of the city the goal we've got programs and adapt them to the places and people for the place that are providing little services and evaluate them and do a process improvement to make sure we're reaching those who most need rapid linkage to care and then the retention committee is the other important group those are data from 2013 we don't have the ends of 2014 data completely yet but i have gotten preliminary numbers from the group what you can see after being linked to care 36 months

after overall we're logging a third of all the san franciscans new lettingly diagnosed and done worse with african-american and youth in particular i'll tell you in terms of retention the african-americans and in the last year have we're retaining them but the rate of linkage to care initially and the viral suppression are the lost in individuals under the age of thirty and african-americans those are the groups we need to roanoke county and the retention of low rates has a desperation of viruses a small use of people that infect drugs become enacted but we need to provide them with the services they need and finally we've created this end

stigma committee that is critical that is the driver of hiv of the hiv epidemic it is certainly why we see increased rate in youth in other communities it is the state government stigma people feel about going into a test and after the test getting treatment and care and this is true in transgenders communities we have a committee that works on ending the privilege and description offer people living with hiv and embarked i want to close with two things we have i think is a fantastic we are talking about one of our members of the consortium getting to zero sf.org i urge you encourage you to look at it we've keeping it updated with the numbers of infections listed as well as the activities of various groups and the membership and serves as a
