Validation of the modes of transmission model as a tool to prioritize HIV prevention targets: a comparative modelling analysis

The static Modes of Transmission (MOT) model predicts the annual fraction of new HIV infections acquired across subgroups (MOT metric), and is used to focus HIV prevention. Using synthetic epidemics via a dynamical model, we assessed the validity of the MOT metric for identifying epidemic drivers (b...
