Proposed Project
‘‘Evaluation of Pharmacy Syringe
Access Linked to HIV Testing for
Injection Drug Users in New York City
(Pharm-HIV)’’—New—National Center
for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and
TB Prevention (NCHHSTP). Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
HIV continues to be one of the leading
causes of illness and death in the US,
especially among black and Hispanic
communities. For injection drug users
(IDU), who are at high risk of acquiring
HIV infection, HIV testing may not be
readily accessible. In 2001, the New
York State Legislature established an
Expanded Syringe Access
Demonstration Program (ESAP) in New
York City which made syringes
available through participating
City; ten of which will test a model that
refers injection-drug-using syringe
customers for HIV testing to local HIV
testing sites. Two ESAP pharmacies will
evaluate the feasibility of offering and
performing HIV counseling and testing
in the pharmacy for injection-drug-using
syringe customers.
Two types of respondents will
provide the individual-level data; fortyeight adult (age ≥18 yrs) pharmacy staff
members will be surveyed to learn about
pharmacy staff attitudes and behaviors
regarding HIV testing and referral. The
other respondent group will be 442
adult (age ≥18 yrs) injection-drug-using
syringe customers who will complete a
brief quantitative interview after HIV
referral or HIV testing is offered to them.
HIV-seropositive injection-drug-using
syringe customers identified during HIV
testing will be immediately linked to
social and medical services. There is no
cost to respondents other than their
time.
pharmacies for injection drug users.
ESAP thus helped to reduce the burden
of HIV by increasing access to sterile
syringe sources. The ESAP allows for
regular contact between pharmacists
and their injection-drug-using syringe
customers, thus paving the way for
pharmacies to act as access points to
health and social services among IDU
customers. The expansion of pharmacy
services to include referrals for
injection-drug-using syringe customers
is based on the successes of ESAP,
which provides many services beyond
syringe exchange.
This project involves two kinds of
studies: testing service models at
pharmacies and, interviewing
individuals regarding the availability of
syringes through pharmacies. For testing
service models CDC will collaborate
with the New York Academy of
Medicine (NYAM) to implement this
project for a period of three years.
The NYAM will identify 12 ESAP
pharmacies in East Harlem, New York

functions of the Advisory Board include

been promulgated by the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) as a final
rule; advice on methods of dose
reconstruction which have also been
promulgated by HHS as a final rule; advice

on the scientific validity and quality of dose

program; and advice on petitions to add
classes of workers to the Special Exposure
Cohort (SEC).
In December 2000, the President delegated
responsibility for funding, staffing, and
operating the Advisory Board to HHS, which
subsequently delegated this authority to CDC.
NIOSH implements this responsibility for
CDC. The charter was issued on August 3,
2001, renewed at appropriate intervals, and
will expire on August 3, 2009.
Purpose: The Advisory Board is charged
with (a) Providing advice to the Secretary,
HHS, on the development of guidelines
under Executive Order 13179; (b) providing
advice to the Secretary, HHS, on the
scientific validity and quality of dose
reconstruction efforts performed for this
program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advising the Secretary on
whether there is a class of employees at any
Department of Energy facility who were
exposed to radiation but for whom it is not
feasible to estimate their radiation dose, and
on whether there is reasonable likelihood
