摘要: Objective: To assess the contribution of primary or acute HIV infection to transmission among homosexual men in Amsterdam and investigate how initiation treatment during (PHI) can affect incidence infection. Methods: A mathematical model describing was developed. In model, are involved both steady casual partnerships. Infectivity is higher PHI than chronic Highly active antiretroviral therapy reduces infectivity increases time development AIDS. Its effect enhanced if initiated PHI. fraction attributed were calculated for different levels efficacy. Results: Primary infections account 35% transmissions from partners 6% partners. Among all new infections, only 11% occurs Therefore, on limited. However, a community with risky behaviour partners, 25%. Conclusion: play more important role communities which majority epidemic at an advanced phase, rather small early
