Receiving HIV Serostatus Disclosure from Partners Before Sex: Results from an Online Survey of Chinese Men Who Have Sex with Men

Abstract: HIV serostatus disclosure before sex can facilitate serosorting, condom use and potentially decrease the risk of HIV acquisition. However, few studies have evaluated HIV serostatus disclosure from partners before sex. We examined the rate and correlates of receiving HIV serostatus disclosure from regular and casual male partners before sex among an online sample of men who have sex with men (MSM) in China. An online cross-sectional study was conducted among MSM in eight Chinese cities in July 2016. Participant… Show more

“…CRFs and other recombinants account for approximately 80% of circulating strains in East and Southeast Asia, including China (Hemelaar et al, 2019).

Due to this high-risk behavior and viral characteristics, the genetic diversity of HIV-1 has become increasingly complex in this population.…”
