Аннотация
Objective. Assessment of the epidemiological significance of a group of homosexual men in the spread of HIV infection in St. Petersburg.
Materials and methods. An integrated biobehavioral study among 400 homosexual men was conducted in 2022 during outreach visits to leisure places specialized for the group and in medical clinics in St. Petersburg.
Results. HIV prevalence was 7.8%, which is comparable to previous studies among homosexual men. The incidence is estimated at 2.1%. The group is characterized by high levels of awareness about HIV infection, coverage with testing and preventive interventions, as well as self-treatment. At the same time, every fourth HIV-positive man is not informed about his status. At the same time, the homosexual group is still characterized by a wide range and high prevalence of various risky sexual practices.
Conclusion. Prevention programs for homosexual men should take into account their behavioral and cognitive characteristics, focus on gaps in awareness of specific prevention opportunities and behavior change. It is also advisable to include services in the field of mental health and addictive behavior in preventive programs.
