Newly arrived Asian-born gay men in Australia: exploring men's HIV knowledge, attitudes, prevention strategies and facilitators toward safer sexual practices

Tiffany R. Phillips et al.

Summary: Asian-born gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) newly arrived in Australia have limited knowledge of HIV prevention strategies aside from condom use. They mainly rely on condoms for HIV prevention, with varying levels of consistency in use. Some express interest in PrEP but find it too expensive, highlighting the importance of sexual health counseling and connections with LGBTQI community groups in facilitating more effective HIV prevention.

Translating Co-Design from Face-to-Face to Online: An Australian Primary Producer Project Conducted during COVID-19

Alison Kennedy et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the co-design phase of a project aimed at preventing poor mental health for primary producers, specifically focusing on the advantages, challenges, and considerations of translating face-to-face co-design methods to an online environment in response to COVID-19 restrictions. The results show that online co-design is feasible with proper preparation, training, and resource allocation, and that it can engage hard to reach populations effectively with early-stage relationship building. Quality of co-design does not necessarily suffer when moving to an online platform, and saved costs and resources from online methods can be reallocated towards intervention/service creation, promotion, and user engagement.

Stigma, HIV Risk, and Access to HIV Prevention and Treatment Services Among Men Who have Sex with Men (MSM) in the United States: A Scoping Review

Riddhi A. Babel et al.

Summary: Recent literature review found that HIV-related stigma remains a significant barrier to prevention and treatment among men who have sex with men (MSM), with internalized stigma associated with lower treatment engagement and HIV-positive MSM in the Southern part of the US more likely to engage in risky behavior. Perceived healthcare discrimination negatively impacted PrEP awareness, especially among HIV-negative Black MSM, and intersectional stigma compounded social structural barriers to PrEP adherence among young MSM of color. Stigma reduction interventions are needed to address these disparities and gaps in care continuum, with further research necessary to understand how different types of stigma affect viral suppression and PrEP uptake and adherence, particularly among MSM of color.

Additionally, themes such as provider distrust and discrimination, government and pharmaceutical industry distrust, internalized homonegativity, and PrEP efficacy distrust were frequent across different socioecological levels.
