An HIV outbreak in southeastern Indiana related to abuse of
intravenous prescription drugs has jumped by 24 cases in the past week,
an increase attributed to offering more testing resources, state health officials said on Friday.

The outbreak centered in rural Scott County near the border with Kentucky has reached 130 cases,
including 10 preliminary positive tests, up from 106 a week ago, health officials said.
