Top 17 Posts About the Federal Response to HIV in 2017

As the end of 2017 draws near, like many of you, we have been reflecting on the developments and opportunities of the past year. For us, that has included taking a look back at the most visited blog posts that we published this year. Not only is that a useful way to remind us of many of the important issues and milestones from the past year, but it also gives us useful perspective on what our readers found interesting. 

On Wednesdays – and, often, many other days of the week – we share information about the Federal response to HIV on the blog. So today, we’re taking a look at the top 17 most-visited blog posts on that broad theme. The posts are an interesting mix. They include: 

• News or resource announcements from several of our federal partners, including CDC, HRSA and the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, HUD, PEPFAR, and SAMHSA;
• Commentaries by OHAIDP’s Director Dr. Richard Wolitski;
• Highlights on emerging HIV research from our partners at NIH; and
• The post about our own name change from AIDS.gov to HIV.gov.
