Gabai CM, Moore MS, Penrose K, et al. - Researchers examined HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) with no reported history of injection drug use (IDU) for hepatitis C virus (HCV) incidence. Further, they investigated if HIV/HCV coinfection differs by race/ethnicity and neighborhood poverty level within this population in New York City. From 2000 to 2015, they identified 54,488 non-IDU MSM diagnosed with HIV; of these, 2,762 (5.1%) were diagnosed with HCV after HIV diagnosis, yielding an overall age-adjusted HCV diagnosis rate of 512 per 100,000 person-years. After stratification by year of HIV diagnosis, non-Latino blacks had a significantly higher incidence of HIV/HCV coinfection relative to non-Latino whites. In addition, the incidence was higher among persons living in high-poverty neighborhoods relative to those in low-poverty neighborhoods. Based on these findings they recommend undertaking routine HCV screening for people infected with HIV. Linking of people coinfected with HIV and HCV to HCV care is recommended; these people should be treated and cured to decrease morbidity and mortality, and to circumvent ongoing HCV transmission.
