Abstract

Early diagnosis and early treatment of HIV can extend the life of PLWH and reduce the subsequent transmission of HIV. [...]HIV testing plays a crucial role in public health. In the context of expanding treatment programs, PLWH who do not know their infection status have become the primary source of HIV transmission. [...]it is necessary for the whole society to participate in HIV/AIDS prevention and control programs and spread HIV/AIDS-related knowledge through various channels to popularize the importance of HIV testing. [...]the active testing rate in China is low. [...]China has a high proportion of PLWH who have had a delayed diagnosis for HIV. [...]the number of people aged over 50 years diagnosed with HIV has increased steadily over the years.
