“Now it’s more of an effort”
The purpose of this study was to (1) explore how COVID-19 affected different experiences of HIV/STI testing, such as venue-based (in-person), telemedicine and at-home HIV/STI testing provided by the #MVMNT study, and (2) how HIV/STI testing utilization themes and experiences reflected different contextual factors of the Andersen behavioral model. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 48 queer men and non-binary individuals from the Northea…
Neighborhood Violence Impacts on HIV and STI Testing Among Sexual Minority Youth in the United States
In the United States (U.S.), sexual minority youth (SMY) are disproportionately impacted by HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and structurally marginalized from routine testing for HIV and STI. This study examines neighborhood violence predictors (saw violence, safety concerns, and being threatened) on HIV and STI testing among a sample of SMY in the U.S. Data came from the 2021 Youth Risk Behavioral Surveillance System (YRBSS)…
Spatializing Substance Use and Sexual Behaviors of Queer Men and Non-binary Individuals During Covid-19
Building capacity for HIV and implementation science among students in the United States
Background: Expanding HIV research capacity among the global majority (individuals identifying as Black/African American, American Indian and Alaska Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, Multiracial, and Hispanic/Latino) is important. However, achieving national goals to increase the pool of implementation science and HIV early-stage investigators from underrepresented backgrounds remains elusive, largely due to limited inves…
Stimulating training and access to HIV research experiences (STAR program)
Background: HIV is more common among underrepresented minority adolescents and young adults (AYA, 13-24 years old) in the United States. Low uptake of HIV prevention services suggests a missed opportunity for implementing evidence-based interventions such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and sexually transmitted infection testing among this important population. Most research institutions in the United States also have limited opportunities for…
Spatial Associations of Alcohol Outlet Density with Neighborhood Crime and Child Opportunity
BACKGROUND: Passaic county, New Jersey (NJ) has a high population density and diverse racial composition, with significant socioeconomic disparities that vary by city. Such disparities expose residents, and particularly children, to environmental conditions that may be harmful to their health and wellbeing such as high exposure to crime, violence, and high amounts of alcohol outlets. This study explores the association between alcohol outlet dens…
A Viral Afterlife
Background: The ongoing mpox, HIV, and COVID-19 continue to impact sexual and gender-marginalized men (SGMM) disproportionately. In the wake of ongoing skewed life chances and differential health outcomes among SGMM, we use the “afterlife of the HIV/AIDS crisis” as an analytical framework of SGMM experiences related to mpox, HIV, and COVID-19. Methods: Between September 2022 and February 2023, we conducted 33 semi-structured interviews among SGMM…
Activity Space Mapping and Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Uptake Among Gay, Bisexual, and Other Sexual Minority Men in Small Cities and Towns in the United States
Adolescent Perceptions of HIV Testing Access and Utilization Across Two States with Varying Laws Regulating Minors’ Access to Confidential Sexual Health Services
Health Funding for Parks and Greenspace
Parks and greenspaces provide well-documented benefits for physical, mental, and social health. Nonprofit hospitals, required to conduct Community Health Needs Assessments (CHNAs) and invest in social determinants of health, could therefore advance health and health equity by supporting park access and quality. We reviewed CHNAs from 51 large nonprofit hospitals in U.S. cities ranking in the lower half of the 2024 Trust for Public Land ParkScore …
This is fine
Creative and humorous activism, both online and offline, has historically been important for queer communities during public health crises like the AIDS epidemic. Online activism and affinity became critical during the COVID‐19 pandemic due to reduced in‐person healthcare, social support, and resources. General functions of online meme humor expanded during COVID‐19, including using dark humor and defining in‐group political values and positions.…
It’s another gay disease”
GBSMM have mpox experiences that are distinct and multifaceted. Effectively addressing mpox and mitigating public health emergencies for GBSMM requires prioritizing destigmatizing communication channels and vaccine distribution strategies by centering their stories and lived experiences to advance health equity
A Nationally Representative Analysis of Substance Use and Sexual Health Correlates Associated with HIV and STI Testing among Adolescents
Re-Imagining Public Health Education
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the shortcomings and neglected weaknesses of public health systems have risen to the surface, emphasizing the need for new approaches to designing and delivering public health training. Higher education institutions have a critical role in advocating for societal change and sufficiently prepare the next generations of public health. Therefore, this commentary shares the unique voices of current and recent…
Extended reality as a means to enhance public health education
Technology has transformed the classroom and learning environments. From electronic whiteboards to tablet computers, educators now have access to a multitude of tools that enhance the learning experience. Educational technologies that rely on extended reality (XR) such as augmented and virtual reality are being used, or suggested for use, in various settings and often focus on technical fields such as medicine, dentistry, and aviation. Here, we p…
