One-way sensitivity analysis of the cost-effectiveness of high PrEP coverage plus earlier ART compared to the status quo. The horizontal bars represent the range of the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) as each variable is varied across its plausible range listed. The solid vertical black line indicates the base case ICER ($115,320 per QALY gained). The dashed vertical blue and red lines represent the per capita gross domestic product (GDP) for San Francisco ($81,347 in 2015 [57]) and three times the per capita GDP, respectively, two thresholds denoting a very cost-effective and cost-effective use of resources, by international standards [56]. PrEP pre-exposure prophylaxis, ART antiretroviral therapy, ICER incremental cost-effectiveness ratio, QALY quality-adjusted life-year, GDP gross domestic product
