Factors associated with mobile app-based ordering of HIV self-test kits among men who have sex with men in Atlanta, Detroit and New York City: an exploratory secondary analysis of a randomized control trial.

HIV testing is an important tool in ending the HIV epidemic and must be accessible and frequent for key populations. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of HIV self-test kits in reaching populations with suboptimal testing rates and shows that self-testing may supplement community-based and clinical testing while helping overcome some of the structural barriers that limit access to annual HIV prevention services for MSM.
