Assessing gaps in the HIV care continuum in young men who have sex with men: The P18 cohort study
summary
Findings suggest that while gaps persist between the key steps of the HIV care continuum, these gaps may be diminished among YMSM if concerted efforts were made to link and retain YMSM into care and HIV treatment. This is particularly important, as recent HIV estimates suggest that despite substantial reductions in HIV incidence among all at-risk groups in the United States, YMSM between 13 and 24 years of age are still at increased risk for HIV. Therefore, understanding the points at which to intervene are warranted. Full citation:
