The ADAP list does not reflect the many thousands that can not apply for ADAP because their state has changed the eligibility requirements from 500% of federal poverty limit to 200% and does not reflect those "not in care" - having no access to medical treatment at all.<br />This "unmet need" in some states is greater than 50% of the Positives. A footnote should indicate on the ADAP list the thousands in each state that are not receiving medicines!!!!!<br />(In our state, over 4,000 are without care, which is 70% of the HIV Positive in the state, while the ADAP list shows zero.)Ann in Arkansasnoreply@blogger.com
