Details

The number of acts at each time step is specified as a function of the race of both members in a pair and the expected values within black-black, black-white, and white-white combinations. For one-off partnerships, this is deterministically set at 1, whereas for main and causal partnerships it is a stochastic draw from a Poisson distribution. The number of total acts may further be modified by the level of HIV viral suppression in an infected person.
