Disease intervention specialists (DIS) conduct partner notification for STD and HIV to interrupt the transmission of STD/HIV. In 2016, we collected information from health departments in the United States of America to determine the number of DIS and whether this number was sufficient for STD/HIV prevention. We identified 1610 STD/HIV DIS positions in the USA and 379 DIS supervisory positions. Of DIS positions, 85% were filled indicating potential issues with turnover. Using nationally reportable data from 2016, we found that states with more primary and secondary syphilis cases had more DIS. DIS participated in public health emergencies in 57% of states. Most USA states indicated that the DIS workforce was not sufficient for STD/HIV prevention. Knowledge of information about DIS workload (e.g. number of STD/HIV cases assigned per DIS) would be helpful.
疾病干预专家（DIS）负责性传播疾病（STD）和艾滋病（HIV）的性伴侣通知，以阻断 STD/HIV 的传播。2016 年，我们从美国的卫生部门收集信息，以确定 DIS 的数量，以及这个数量是否足以预防 STD/HIV。我们在美国确定了 1610 个 STD/HIV DIS 职位和 379 个 DIS 监督职位。在 DIS 职位中，85%的职位已经有人填补，这表明人员流动可能存在问题。根据 2016 年全国可报告的数据，我们发现原发性和继发性梅毒病例较多的州拥有更多的 DIS。57%的州的 DIS 参与了公共卫生应急事件。大多数美国州表示，DIS 人员不足以预防 STD/HIV。了解有关 DIS 工作量的信息（例如，每位 DIS 分配的 STD/HIV 病例数量）将有所帮助。
