The treatment gap and the HIV care continuum for cisgender men who have sex with men in three South African cities: Findings from a biobehavioural survey, 2019
Achievements towards HIV care indicators were sub-optimal for MSM in three South African sites, revealing potential gaps in the reach and uptake of HIV testing and treatment services. Research identifying multi-level determinants of these gaps is needed to guide the development of contextually appropriate and effective interventions.
