The increase in global HIV epidemics in MSM

Abstract: Epidemics of HIV in MSM continue to expand in most low, middle, and upper income countries in 2013 and rates of new infection have been consistently high among young MSM. Current prevention and treatment strategies are insufficient for this next wave of HIV spread. We conducted a series of comprehensive reviews of HIV prevalence and incidence, risks for HIV, prevention and care, stigma and discrimination, and policy and advocacy options. The high per act transmission probability of receptive anal intercourse, … Show more

“…Despite earlier concerns about an increase in heterosexual cases and "feminization" of the epidemic, it seems the actual scenario is the predominance of HIV infection among MSM, similar to data from many other countries [49,50]. In a study conducted in two Brazilian cities in 2013 using laboratory tests to distinguish recent from long-term infections, the estimated incidence rate was greater than 1% among MSM [25].…”

“…1 There were an estimated 1.1 million AIDS-related deaths and 2.1 million new HIV infections, much higher than the target of fewer than 500 000 AIDS-related deaths and new HIV infections by 2020. 1 Achieving 90-90-90 within a short timeframe of 5 years and ending AIDS by 2030 will not be possible without addressing the HIV epidemic in key populations including men who have sex with men (MSM), people who inject drugs (PWID), sex workers, prisoners, and transgender that bear disproportionate burdens of HIV [8][9][10] and account for 36% of new HIV infections. 1 In many countries, HIV care and treatment services for key populations are inadequate and of poor quality.…”

“…[15][16][17][18] The relationship between syndemics and individual sexual risk behaviour is complex and contested. However, when communities experience high levels of widespread health and social challenges such as syndemics, we know this undermines the accessibility and effectiveness of prevention programs, testing services and access to treatment.…”

“…The combination of GMSM sexuality and HIV-related stigma have been found to reinforce and multiply other social inequalities such as race and class, exacerbating the impact of stigma on minorities. Recent studies 16 concerning black and white GMSM, particularly in the US and UK, provide an example. Beyrer et al 16 in their review about the increases in the global GMSM epidemic, summarised multiple studies and reviews comparing black and white GMSM, particularly in the US and UK.…”
