Large majorities say that increasing use of condoms (84%), increasing education about abstinence (82%), and increasing the number of people who get tested for HIV (72%) are “very important” priorities for HIV prevention in the United States. When forced to choose, half (51%) say increasing education about abstinence for young people should be the most important priority, while smaller shares choose increasing the use of condoms (24%) and increasing the number of people who get tested for HIV (9%). One in eight (13%) volunteered that these priorities should all be equally important.
