Abstract
A literature review of issues affecting PrEP Education and Implementation in racism mistrust in black communities (HIV/AIDS)
Highlights
World Health Organization (WHO), 1948 stated health is more than the absence of diseases, as a negative definition of health will never entail the positive aspects of possessing health
Participants were enrolled in the pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) Program compared with men who have sex with men (MSM) and IDU of PrEP use on health, behavior, stigma, and interest in psycho-behavioral support services to PrEP
In multivariable analysis controlling for age and race/ethnicity demographic significant to use oral PrEP included the following: less education [odds ratio (OR) = 7.7; P = 0.04], moderate income (OR = 13.0; P = 0.04), no perceived side effects from taking PrEP (OR = 3.5; P = 0.001), and not having to pay for PrEP (OR = 4.2; P = 0.05)
Summary
World Health Organization (WHO), 1948 stated health is more than the absence of diseases, as a negative definition of health will never entail the positive aspects of possessing health. Bharat (2002) has pointed out an acknowledged truism known throughout the world that those individuals most affected by HIV are the most disadvantaged in terms of race, economic status, age, sexual orientation or gender [1,2,3]. He documented how the nearly two decades-old global history of the HIV epidemic undergirds once again the well-established interplay of disease, stigma and identities gone bad based on race, ethnicity, and sexuality. Most of them will live in disbelief that they could be at risk for HIV, and so are reluctant to try new preventative treatments such as PrEP
