Addressing Violence Against Women Gap
Programs are needed to reduce violence against women who test HIV-positive and/or are already living with HIV. A study found that HIV-positive women report that they were subjected to violence upon disclosure of their serostatus. Women living with HIV continue to experience violence (Hale and Vazquez, 2011). A study of serodiscordant couples found that intimate partner violence was more frequent in those who were HIV positive (2.7% as compared to 2.2%). Those women who suffered from violence prior to couples testing continued to experience violence (Were et al., 2011).
