Repeat HIV testing among HIV-uninfected men who have sex with men attending Silom Community Clinic, Bangkok, 2011 - 2014
Since 2010, the Thailand Ministry of Public Health has recommended that men who have sex with men (MSM) have an HIV test at least two times a year. We calculated the proportion of, and factors associated with, testing adherence among the HIV-uninfected MSM clients attending Silom Community Clinic TropMed. We defined testing adherence as repeating at least one HIV test within six months of an initial HIV-negative test, and used log-binomial regression to test for associated factors. We included 1927 clients during 2011–2014; 362 (19%) were adherent with an increased trend (p < 0.01), from 16% to 24%. Clients aged 18–24 years and those having a history of HIV testing were more likely to adhere (aRR: 1.3, 95% CI: 1.1–1.6; and aRR: 1.3, 95% CI: 1.0–1.5, respectively). One-fifth adhered to the recommendation; older clients or naïve testees were less likely to adhere. We need to impress on clients the importance of repeat HIV testing.
