HIV care continuum among newly diagnosed student and non-student youths between 2012 and 2016 in Hangzhou, China.
CONCLUSIONS: ART initiation in both student and non-student youths has significantly improved between 2012 and 2016. However, the viral suppression rate remained unacceptably low at 12 months of HIV diagnosis in both student and non-student groups. Specific intervention strategies must be taken to address this challenge.
