The treatment gap and the HIV care continuum for cisgender men who have sex with men in three South African cities
Background The HIV continuum of care for men who have sex with men (MSM) in South Africa remains inadequately characterised, hindering the tracking of progress towards ending the HIV epidemic. We estimated HIV prevalence and care continuum indicators for MSM in three South African cities. Methods and findings MSM were recruited via respondent-driven sampling (RDS) methods in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Mahikeng. Eligibility criteria included age…
Integrating PrEP and Sexual Reproductive Health Services for Adolescent Girls and Young Women in South Africa
Trajectories of HIV Visit Engagement During the Perinatal Period among Women in Lilongwe, Malawi
Associations between psychosocial wellbeing and experience of gender-based violence at community, household, and intimate-partner levels among a cross-sectional cohort of young people living with and …
Findings suggest that for young people in this setting, GBV at community and household levels was more prevalent during COVID-19 compared to IPV, especially for YPLWoH. While we found limited associations between COVID-related stressors and GBV, the perceived increases in GBV since lockdown in a setting where GBV is endemic, and the association of household violence with mental health, is a concern for future pandemic responses and should be long…
Access to Social Protection by People Living with, at Risk of, or Affected by HIV in Eswatini, Malawi, Tanzania, and Zambia
We aimed to measure social protection coverage among the general population, women and men living with HIV (WLHIV, MLHV), female and male sex workers (FSW, MSW), men who have sex with men (MSM), adolescent girls young women (AGYW), and orphans vulnerable children (OVC) in Eswatini, Malawi, Tanzania, and Zambia. We used Population-Based HIV Impact Assessment data. We operationalised social protection benefits as external economic support from priv…
Understanding Oral Prep Interest Among South African Adolescents
Pre-exposure prophylaxis as an opportunity for engagement in HIV prevention among South African adolescents
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) offers a potential biomedical strategy to reduce HIV incidence among adolescent populations disproportionately affected by HIV. There is limited evidence on the social and clinical implications, including engagement in HIV prevention efforts, of PrEP for South African adolescents, who face high HIV risk. We conducted a mixed-methods study in Western Cape, South Africa from 2015 to 2016. Adolescents (N = 35) aged 16…
The Effect of PrEP Use Disclosure on Adherence in a Cohort of Adolescent Girls and Young Women in South Africa

Stigma reduction interventions in people living with HIV to improve health-related quality of life
I’m doing this test so I can benefit from PrEP”
In South Africa, adolescents are a key population in the HIV epidemic that can benefit from increased access to oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). HIV testing is an integral component of the PrEP care continuum but adolescents in South Africa have generally low HIV testing rates; therefore, adolescents' HIV testing attitudes and behaviours must be understood to develop strategies for effective PrEP implementation. Ten focus groups were conduct…
