Fact Sheet: Transgender HIV Testing Day Policy Recommendations



We released these policy recommendations on April 18, transgender HIV testing day, because we recognize that the transgender community is among those at highest risk of HIV infection.  In a meta-analysis of published studies, 27.7 percent of transgender women tested positive for HIV.
