1 HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE MN HIV SURVEILLANCE REPORT 2013 Minnesota Department of Health HIV/AIDS Surveillance System
2
3 Estimated Number of Persons Living with HIV/AIDS in Minnesota As of December 31, 2013, 7,723* persons are assumed alive and living in Minnesota with HIV/AIDS 4,095 living with HIV infection (non-aids) 3,628 living with AIDS * This number includes persons who reported Minnesota as their current state of residence, regardless of residence at time of diagnosis. Includes state prisoners and refugees arriving through the HIV+ Refugee Resettlement Program, as well as HIV+ refugee/immigrants arriving through other programs.

36 Minnesota HIV Treatment Cascade
37 Percentage of persons diagnosed with HIV engaged in selected stages of the continuum of care Minnesota
38 Conclusions There were 301 new HIV diagnoses reported in Minnesota in 2013, a decrease of 4% from 2012 Great disparities in HIV diagnoses persist among populations of color and American Indians living in Minnesota Male-to-male sex remains the leading risk factor for acquiring HIV/AIDS in Minnesota New HIV diagnoses remain concentrated in the Twin Cities seven-county metro area (82% of new diagnoses in 2013) Foreign-born persons made up nearly 1 in 5 of new HIV diagnoses in 2013, and progress from HIV to AIDS more quickly than U.S. born persons living with HIV in Minnesota

40 The place where two discriminations exist is a dangerous place to live. - Richard (Anguksuar) LaFortune Using Public Health Programming to Mitigate Disease and Death from Opiate Drug Use Sarah Gordon, MPH, NREMT-B
41 The issue is not simple. disease, heroin, death, stigma, addiction, war on drugs, healthcare access, harm reduction Injection drug use is a well-known route of transmission of blood borne infections, particularly HIV and hepatitis B and C. Use of illicit drugs is associated with increased rates of TB and STDs. Recommended approaches, immunizations and screening, can protect the health of a person who uses drugs through medical interventions, while evidence-based behavioral interventions help prevent sexual and injection transmission by addressing risky behaviors.

44 Twin Cities has the cheapest and strongest heroin in the country, officials say By Aaron Rupar Thu., Jun at 1:04 PM At the newser, a doctor said there were four heroin-related deaths reported in Hennepin County in Last year, that number shot up to 37, and Hennepin County Sheriff Rich Stanek said the county is on pace to set a new record this year. Stanek also said the heroin he's seeing these days in Hennepin County is the cheapest and strongest in the country, a combination he characterized as particularly deadly. His comments reiterated what law enforcement officials said at a similar news conference last year. Then, they referenced an analysis showing that some heroin found on Twin Cities' streets was up to 93 percent pure, whereas typical American street heroin has a purity of about 35 percent. "A heroin user in the Twin Cities has a greater chance of accidental overdose because the purity of that heroin is so high," Stanek said during that news conference. At today's newser, officials pointed out the role prescription drugs play as a gateway to heroin. According to the Star Tribune, data showed that heroin and prescription drug abuse in the Twin Cities reached an all-time high last year. The two accounted for 21 percent of all addiction treatments in the state, with only alcohol abuse accounting for a higher share.

50 Local Impact Hennepin/Ramsey County Drug Deaths Deaths Opiates Cocaine Methamphetamine Hennepin County Medical Examiner and Ramsey County Medical Examiner, 2013
51 What makes opioid users at particular risk of overdose fatality? Among patients receiving opioid prescriptions for pain, higher opioid doses were associated with increased risk of opioid overdose death. Bohnert, et al Poly-drug use Bohnert, et al Substance use disorders and co-occuring mental health disorders Hall, et. al., 2008 Purity! Mexican heroin purity in Minneapolis highest in country and sold at lowest cost DEA Domestic Monitoring Program 2009
52 What makes opioid users at particular risk of overdose fatality? (continued) Fear! Fear of police response was the most commonly cited reason for not calling or delaying before calling for help Efforts to equip drug users to manage overdoses effectively, including training in first aid and the provision of naloxone, and the reduction of police involvement at overdose events may have a substantial impact on overdose-related morbidity and mortality. Tracy, et al. Drug and Alcohol Dependence. 09/2005
53 Non-fatal overdose in injection drug users Reality of drug use. Lifetime prevalence ~ 40% Of these ~ 70% reversed by naloxone Lifetime witnesses ~ 90% Fatal 1-3 hour window for medical intervention Sackoff et al. Ann Int Med, 2006; Ermak et al. 2009
54 The other reality of drug use.
55 Public Health Programming to Prevent Disease
56 Role of Needle Exchange in HIV and Hepatitis C Prevention Efforts The public health approach to disease prevention is to reduce risk of infection whether individual stops the risk behavior or not, which thereby protects the health of the community
57 Syringe Exchange is low-threshold entry point for drug users into prevention services and treatment Exchange participants 5x more likely to enter drug treatment than nonparticipants 67% of all exchange programs offer HCV testing and 87% offer HIV testing and linkage to care Since implementation of exchange programs in the late 80s, HIV rates in injection drug users decreased overall by 80 %
58 Syringe Exchange Promotes Public Post implementation of syringe exchange programs reduce number of syringes found in public areas. 50% drop in Baltimore 2/3 reduction in Portland, OR Safety Implementation of syringe exchange programs reduces needle-stick injuries to police. 2/3 injury reduction for Connecticut law enforcement 66% reduction for Macon County, NC law enforcement
59 Testing is Prevention! 2 good reasons to get tested for HIV and HCV If you have HIV and/or HCV, you can get treatment and healthy lifestyle education that may help you live a longer, healthier life. If you do not have HIV or HCV, you can learn how to stay that way. Studies show persons who are aware of their status decrease behaviors that help transmit infection
60 911 Good Samaritan Laws Purpose: increase overdose survival rates by encouraging overdose witnesses to seek medical help through limited immunity from arrest and prosecution for minor drug and alcohol violation Good Sam laws do not protect from arrest for other offenses, such as selling or trafficking, or driving while drugged 15 states and District of Columbia have Good Sam policies New Mexico, California, Colorado, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Illinois, Florida, Massachusetts, Connecticut, North Carolina, Vermont, Delaware, Georgia, and Washington
61 Broadening Naloxone Access Broader naloxone access policies puts overdose antidote in the hands of witnesses, first responders, community prevention programs High affinity opioid receptor antagonist Rapidly absorbed via IV, IM, SC, IN routes Half-life ~ 40 minutes Non-abusable Adverse effect withdrawal Shelf-life 3 years
