Title: HIV statistics, help finding please
Post by: hotpuppy on December 28, 2008, 04:40:00 pm

Hi,
  I know I read an article or item on poz.com sometime back that referenced the honesty of MSMs online regarding HIV.  It went something like 17% of men lie outright about their HIV status and 25% have not been tested or do not know their status.

I've spent some time searching for that information and it's source study.  Has anyone else seen that info?  I'm also looking for similar information or studies that focus on the MSM community.

Thanks,

You rock! Thank you.  ;)   

Out of curiosity, did you search for these and if so, what search terms?  I'd like to improve my ability to find this material in the future.

You are welcome.  The search term was "online disclosure".
