Heterosexual Males<br />
� Screening in heterosexual males not routinely<br />
recommended<br />
� Need evidence <strong>of</strong> reduction <strong>of</strong> infection in<br />
women to be cost effective<br />
� However, selective screening in high<br />
prevalence clinics (e.g. adolescent, corrections,<br />
<strong>STD</strong>) may be beneficial<br />

should be at least 6%*<br />
� CDC will develop separate guidance in this<br />
area*<br />
