Article Synopsis
- A study analyzed the PrEP prescription reversal and abandonment rates in the U.S., finding that 19.4% of prescriptions are reversed, with 13.7% abandoned, particularly higher in non-EHE counties.
- Geographic disparities showed that younger individuals, women, and those with higher out-of-pocket costs were more likely to live in areas with high rates of reversal and abandonment.
- The research emphasizes the need for targeted interventions to reduce these disparities and improve PrEP accessibility nationwide, particularly for those in underserved areas.
Background: The Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative in the United States relies on HIV hotspots to identify where to geographically target new resources, expertise, and technology. However, interventions targeted at places with high HIV transmission and infection risk, not just places with high HIV incidence, may be more effective at reducing HIV incidence and achieving health equity.
Objective: We described the implementation and validation of a web-based activity space survey on HIV risk behaviors.
An understudied social process that may determine variable HIV risk, testing, and linkage to care is geographic mobility, including immigration as well as short-term mobility, especially among sexual minority populations. We aimed to assess how geographic mobility over the lifecourse between Latin America and the U.S.
