We know that many of HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program recipients, subrecipients, and stakeholders are concerned about novel coronavirus (COVID-19). HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program recipients provide a comprehensive system of HIV primary medical care, medication, and essential support services to the most vulnerable people with HIV, and many are playing an important role in delivering critical services and assisting local communities during this public health emergency.

HRSA is working to keep Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program recipients, subrecipients, and partners updated on the latest information regarding COVID-19. As part of that effort, HRSA’s HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) has launched a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) webpage on the HAB website, which HAB is monitoring and updating as new information is made available.

Up-to-date information about COVID-19 is available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. As always, please reach out to your HRSA HAB Project Officer with any additional questions.
