Methods: We used partial HIV consensus sequences with linked demographic and clinical data from the opt-out ATHENA cohort of people with HIV in the Netherlands to quantify population-level sources of transmission to Dutch-born and foreign-born Amsterdam men who have sex with men (MSM) between 2010-2021.

Utilising molecular and clinical data of the ATHENA observational HIV cohort, our primary aims are to estimate the proportion of undiagnosed HIV infections and the proportion of locally acquired infections in Amsterdam in 2014-2018, both in MSM and heterosexuals and Dutch-born and foreign-born individuals.
