Backeround: Continued Need for Emergency The spread of disease, particularly HIV and Hepatitis C, through the sharing of needles continues to be a grave concern in Contra Costa County. 30% of all people living with AIDS in Contra Costa were infected by injection drug use with the highest number of AIDS cases in West County. As of December 1997, Richmond had the highest cumulative incidence of AIDS (4.8 per 1000 population) among Contra Costa cities, with at least 50 cases. Injection drug use was the estimated mode of infection among 40% of all individuals diagnosed with AIDS in Richmond. Among African Americans diagnosed with AIDS in Richmond 1982-1998 53%were most likely infected through injection drug use. Contra Costa Health Services does not currently provide needle exchange services (it is prohibited from doing so absent a declared public health emergency). CCHS does provide services focused on injection drug users including: 1-HIV/AIDS Outreach and Education, 2411V antibody testing, 3-Substance Abuse Treatment, 4-Health on Wheels Van, and 5-Substance Abuse Counseling and Treatment for HIV-infected clients.
