Participants sought for studies Would you like to share your experiences regarding barriers, opportunities, and solutions for improving access to HIV testing and early diagnosis?
The study can provide insights into potential solutions that could serve as a basis for developing strategies to improve access to HIV testing and early diagnosis.
The study aims to explore barriers and opportunities that can improve access to HIV testing and early diagnosis, as well as perceptions of simplified HIV testing, including home and self-testing. Despite Sweden’s success in HIV prevention, late diagnoses remain common, underscoring the need for earlier and more accessible HIV testing.
