ABSTRACT
We examined changes in HIV testing and medical care among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Russia. Data come from the 2010 and 2017 waves of the European MSM Internet Survey. From 2010 to 2017 there was an increase in the proportion who had ever received an HIV test (+ 11.2%), had tested for HIV in the last year (+ 2.1%), had ever taken antiretroviral therapy (ART) (+ 31.9), were currently taking ART (+ 31.5%), and had an undetectable viral load (+ 19.4%). These results are encouraging, yet they also reveal that substantial proportions of MSM experience considerable unmet prevention and treatment needs.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN Examinamos los cambios en las pruebas de detección de VIH y la atención médica entre hombres que tienen sexo con hombres (HSH) en Rusia. Los datos provienen de las olas de 2010 y 2017 de la Encuesta Europea de Internet para HSH. De 2010 a 2017 hubo un aumento en la proporción de quienes alguna vez se habían hecho una prueba de VIH (+ 11.2%), se habían hecho una prueba de VIH en el último año (+ 2.1%), alguna vez habían tomado terapia antirretroviral (TAR) (+ 31.9%), estaban tomando TAR actualmente (+ 31.5%) y tenían una carga viral indetectable (+ 19.4%). Estos resultados son alentadores, pero también revelan que una proporción sustancial de HSH experimenta considerables necesidades de prevención y tratamiento no satisfechas.
