Unemployment and HIV mortality in the countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development: 1981-2009.
JRSM Open 2017 July
OBJECTIVES: To determine an association between unemployment rates and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) mortality in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
DESIGN: Multivariate regression analysis.
PARTICIPANTS: OECD member states.
SETTING: OECD.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: World Health Organization HIV mortality.
RESULTS: Between 1981 and 2009, a 1% increase in unemployment was associated with an increase in HIV mortality in the OECD (coefficient for men 0.711, 0.334-1.089, p = 0.0003; coefficient for women 0.166, 0.071-0.260, p = 0.0007). Time lag analysis showed a significant increase in HIV mortality for up to two years after rises in unemployment: p = 0.0008 for men and p = 0.0030 for women in year 1, p = 0.0067 for men and p = 0.0403 for women in year 2.
CONCLUSIONS: Rises in unemployment are associated with increased HIV mortality. Economic fiscal policy may impact upon population health. Policy discussions should take into consideration potential health outcomes.
