from Jules: Viral Suppression rates I think are often mischaracterized and misstated. Often people knee jerkly say VS rates are 85% but this is based on controversial discrepancies of reporting HRSA RW Clinics reporting viral suppression rates of 85% are based on ONLY 1 viral load test. THIS study reports ALL VL tess in 1 year, and many CDC reports stress that they report VS rates based on sexual VL tests NOT just 1 test.
