This study is the first to provide estimates of HIV testing and the use of PrEP among three generations of gay and bisexual men in the U.S. using a national probability sample. The paper was published in PLOS ONE in September 2018.
Highlights
Most sexually active gay and bisexual men aged 18-25 are not tested for HIV annually, as recommended by the CDC.
A minimal percentage of sexually active gay/bisexual men of all age groups use PrEP.
Visiting an LGBT health clinic was associated with a greater likelihood of HIV testing and PrEP use.
