Forced vaginal sex and genital immune correlates of HIV risk
BACKGROUND: The likelihood of HIV acquisition is increased following forced vaginal sex. This relates in part to epidemiological and behavioural factors; however, the biological effects of forced vaginal sex, including impacts on immune parameters linked to HIV susceptibility, are poorly understood. Here, we examine biological mediators of HIV susceptibility among female sex workers (FSWs) in Nairobi, Kenya, who recently experienced forced vagina…
Conducting Violence and Mental Health Research with Female Sex Workers during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Conducting violence and mental health research during the COVID-19 pandemic with vulnerable groups such as female sex workers (FSWs) required care to ensure that participants and the research team were not harmed. Potential risks and harm avoidance needed to be considered as well as ensuring data reliability. In March 2020, COVID-19 restrictions were imposed in Kenya during follow-up data collection for the Maisha Fiti study ( n = 1003); hence da…
Violence across the Life Course and Implications for Intervention Design
We examined violence experiences among Female Sex Workers (FSWs) in Nairobi, Kenya, and how these relate to HIV risk using a life course perspective. Baseline behavioural-biological surveys were conducted with 1003 FSWs June-December 2019. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for associations of life course factors with reported experience of physical or sex…
Harmful Alcohol and Drug Use Is Associated with Syndemic Risk Factors among Female Sex Workers in Nairobi, Kenya
Background: Female Sex Workers (FSWs) are at high risk of harmful alcohol and other drug use. We use quantitative data to describe the prevalence of alcohol and other drug use and identify associated occupational and socio-economic risk factors, and aim to elucidate patterns of alcohol and drug use through information drawn from qualitative data. Methods: Maisha Fiti was a mixed-method longitudinal study conducted in 2019 among a random sample of…
