Abstract
While highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has transformed HIV/AIDS to a chronic, treatable disease in Canada, HIV incidence continues to rise among male-sex-male (MSM) populations. Montreal, Canada, is a unique environment for a comprehensive surveillance study on HIV transmission dynamics. Phylogenetic strategies show that half of all new MSM infections in Montreal may arise through onward transmission by individuals who are in primary HIV infection (PHI) (< 6 months post-infection) and often unaware of their HIV status. Large cluster networks, wherein one infection leads to 5-31 onward transmissions, constitute the fastest-growing sub-epidemic, representing 25% and 39% of genotyped incident infections in 2005 and 2009, respectively. This has disturbing implications in light of the introduction of non-B subtype and drug-resistant sub-epidemics. Biological and behavioural correlates of cluster membership are being investigated to establish risk determinants implicated in the onward transmission of the MSM epidemic. Our findings underscore the opportunities and challenges in implementing new testing and tailored prevention paradigms for different MSM populations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
