Status and comparison of HIV Knowledge, HIV Testing and other healthy behavior between men who have sex with men only (MSMO) and men who have sex with men and women (MSMW): a cross-sectional study in Zhejiang Province, China
MSMW showed significant differences with MSMO in HIV knowledge and HIV related risky reduction behaviors. It is necessary to enhance awareness and skills on HIV self-testing, PEP, and PrEP among MSM. Encouraging HIV knowledge education and HIV testing service are important for MSMW. PEP and PrEP might be enhanced among MSMO for reducing the risk of HIV transmission.
