Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate how acceptable, usable, and feasible HIV self-testing is among key populations in Morocco, particularly focusing on female sex workers, men who have sex with men, and partners of newly diagnosed individuals.
- - A total of 3,465 individuals were involved, with high acceptability rates for self-testing reported (90.2% among female sex workers, 86.2% among men who have sex with men). However, many participants (44.0% to 73.4%) had never been tested for HIV before.
- - The results suggest that expanding access to HIV self-testing can be beneficial for key populations in Morocco and potentially in other Middle Eastern and North African countries as well. *
