Abstract
Methamphetamine users in South Africa are at high risk for HIV infection and transmission, but little is known about HIV testing in this population. We examined HIV testing behaviors and attitudes in 362 methamphetamine users recruited using chain referral sampling from one peri-urban community. Many (44 %) had not been HIV tested in the past year. HIV testing was associated with positive testing attitudes, less AIDS stigma, and greater methamphetamine stigma. Among participants who reported HIV infection (8 %), less than half were linked to care. Findings highlight the need to identify barriers to HIV service uptake for methamphetamine users.
摘要
南非的甲基苯丙胺使用者面临着感染和传播艾滋病毒的高风险，但对于这一人群的艾滋病毒检测情况却知之甚少。我们通过链式转诊抽样，从一个城郊社区招募了362名甲基苯丙胺使用者，对他们的艾滋病毒检测行为和态度进行了调查。许多人（44%）在过去一年中没有接受过艾滋病毒检测。艾滋病毒检测与积极的检测态度、较少的艾滋病污名化以及较多的甲基苯丙胺污名化有关。在报告感染艾滋病毒的参与者中（8%），不到一半的人与护理机构建立了联系。研究结果凸显了识别甲基苯丙胺使用者接受艾滋病毒服务的障碍的必要性。
