Summary

In the United States (US), gay and bisexual men living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) bear a heavy burden of bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis. It is important to diagnose and treat STIs in a timely manner to prevent health complications and reduce transmissions. The purpose of this study is to understand whether gay and bisexual men living with HIV are willing to collect and return specimens for bacterial STI testing when combined with live audio/video (AV) conferencing support.
