New paper led by Udodirim Onwubiko in BMC Health Services Research: Evaluating Mental Health Integration in PrEP Programs to Reduce HIV Incidence among US Gay and Bisexual Men: A Network Modeling Study. A network model incorporating sexual stigma and mental health factors found that improving mental health services alone averted 12% of new infections, while integrated strategies combining mental health care with expanded PrEP and ART coverage reduced HIV incidence by up to 41%.
