Strata specific number and proportion of non-recent infections at the time of diagnosis

Prevalence ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals of non-recent infections at the time of diagnosis were calculated for the exposure variable GISD using stratified multivariable Poisson regression with ZIP code cluster-robust error variance (standard errors were adjusted for 626 clusters in the MSM stratum and 562 clusters in the HET stratum). The models were adjusted for the variables of sex, approximated age at the time of infection, region of origin and city size
