Staten Island. Staten Island has the smallest population of the five NYC boroughs with a population of 468,730 residents (The City of New York Department of Planning, 2011). The disparities of HIV infection in Staten Island mirror the national epidemiological trends of disproportionate burden carried among those of minority races and ethnic groups. In 2011 Staten Island reported the few number of HIV diagnoses but the highest proportion of concurrent HIV/AIDS diagnoses (34.9%) when compared to the other NYC boroughs (NYCDOHMH, 2012). In 2013, Staten Island reported the lowest number of new HIV diagnoses compared to the other four boroughs of the city (HIV EPISFSU, 2014). A total of 56 new HIV diagnoses were reported; 44 (78.6%) were male and 12 (21.4%) female. Staten Island had markedly lower HIV testing when compared to the rest of NYC (NYCDOHM, 2013b). Although, Staten Island reported the fewest number of new cases and had the lowest number of new diagnosis when compared to other boroughs, it has the highest percentage of residents that had never been tested, 55.6% compared with 38.1% in NYC overall, and only 18.9% reported being tested in the past 12 months. Barriers and Facilitators to HIV Testing Frequent HIV testing, especially among high-risk populations, is crucial to fighting the spread of the virus as it paves a way towards faster detection of HIV infection and results in primary and secondary prevention (Xxxxxxxxxxxx et al., 2008). Frequent testing can also serve as a net to diagnose those that may have tested within the window period, resumed high-risk behavior, but never tested again. The “window period” is defined as the time after infection that it takes for the virus to become detectible by HIV diagnostic tests (New York State Department of Health AIDS Institute, 2013). Although, the length of the period depends on the test and the person, testing someone who is considered high-risk could facilitate early diagnosis. Early diagnosis then facilitates linkage to care and treatment for improved health outcomes among those infected with HIV, and, when viral suppression is achieved, can prevent ongoing transmission to uninfected sexual partners (Xxxxxxxxxxxx et al., 2008). Moreover, the prevalence of high-risk sexual behavior has been shown to be lower in HIV-positive persons with knowledge of their seropositive status when compared to those HIV-positive persons who are unaware of their status (Marks, Crepaz, Senterfitt, & Xxxxxxx, 2005).
