Participation in research involving novel sampling and study designs to identify acute HIV-1 infection among minority men who have sex with men
HIV-1 infection disproportionally affects African-American and Latino men who have sex with men (MSM). Their inclusion in biomedical and behavioral research is critical to understanding and addressing HIV vulnerability. Using focus groups, we sought to understand the perceptions related to participating in biomedical research of acute/recent HIV-1 infection (AHI) using complex sampling and data collection methods to reach this hidden group at hig…
Social and cultural contexts of concurrency in a township in Cape Town, South Africa
Understanding the social and cultural context in which concurrent sexual partnerships exist is important, given recent interventions to reduce their prevalence. This qualitative study seeks to improve the understanding of concurrent partnerships and perceptions of the link between concurrency and HIV risk in a South African township in Cape Town. Small-group discussion and focus-group participants reported that concurrency was a common phenomenon…
The Evidence for the Role of Concurrent Partnerships in Africa’s HIV Epidemics
A Framework of Sexual Partnerships
The global diversity of HIV epidemics can be explained in part by types and patterns of sexual partnerships. We offer a typology of sexual partnerships that corresponds to varying levels of HIV‐transmission risk to help guide thinking about appropriate behavioral interventions, particularly in the epidemics of sub‐Saharan Africa. Declines in HIV prevalence have been associated with reductions in numbers of sex partners, whereas many other prevent…
