Public Health–Seattle & King County recommends that high-risk MSM be screened for HIV and STDs every 3 to 6 months, but many of the high-risk men in our sample had not been tested that often.
Our findings emphasize the continuing need to increase knowledge of HIV status by promoting more frequent testing for high-risk MSM along with efforts to increase consistent condom use, especially with casual partners, regardless of partners’ perceived HIV status.
