Willingness to use long-acting injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis among key populations at a large HIV prevention clinic in Kampala, Uganda: a cross-sectional study
This cross-sectional analysis of diverse members of KPs in Uganda revealed that the willingness to use LAI-PrEP was lower among individuals who were divorced, separated, or widowed compared to those who were single. Future studies should investigate effective methods for promoting the uptake of long-acting PrEP formulations among populations at high risk of HIV acquisition.
