A pilot cluster randomized controlled trial assessing uptake of PrEP and contraception in hair salons in South Africa
Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT04222504. Registered 01-08-2020
Alcohol Use and the Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Continuum of Care Among Men in Rural South Africa
Despite freely available oral HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), HIV incidence among young men in South Africa remains high. This study explores the impact of alcohol use on PrEP initiation and continuation among South African men. We performed a secondary data analysis from a trial involving men aged 16-29, randomly selected in KwaZulu-Natal. Participants were referred to sexual health services, and those who were HIV negative and sexually act…

Experiences of participants in a decentralized antiretroviral therapy program in South Africa during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic and associated restrictions could adversely affect long-term HIV care. We evaluated the experiences of people receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) through a decentralized delivery program in South Africa during the COVID-19 pandemic. We telephoned a random subsample of participants enrolled in a prospective cohort study in KwaZulu-Natal in April and May 2020 and administered a semi-structured telephone interview to consent…
Willingness to accept Covid-19 vaccination among people living with HIV in a high HIV prevalence community
In this cohort of PLWH in South Africa, over half were willing to accept COVID-19 vaccination, although a substantial proportion remained unsure or were not willing to be vaccinated. Public health messaging should emphasize the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccination and address misinformation and medical mistrust among PLWH. Ongoing efforts to ensure access to COVID-19 vaccines for vulnerable populations are crucial
Medical Mistrust and Stigma Associated with Covid-19 Among People Living with HIV in South Africa
We evaluated COVID-19 stigma and medical mistrust among people living with HIV in South Africa. We conducted telephone interviews with participants in a prospective study of a decentralized antiretroviral therapy program. Scales assessing medical mistrust, conspiracy beliefs, anticipated and internalized stigma, and stereotypes specific to COVID-19 were adapted primarily from the HIV literature, with higher scores indicating more stigma or mistru…
