“…CONCLUSIONS: The STI positivity rate among FSW remained stable, but underlying this was a decreasing chlamydia trend and an increasing gonorrhoea trend, suggesting a shift in STI risks among FSW over time. Condom use during oral sex should be promoted since oropharyngeal gonorrhoea was frequently diagnosed and because of the potential spread of antimicrobial resistant gonococci. …”

Future research should focus on more promising alternatives to population-based interventions, such as online interventions, screening in primary care, the rescreening of positives, and clinic-based interventions. …”

“…We will also explore secondary outcomes including participants’ a) timely linkage to care (within 3 months of HIV diagnosis), b) adherence to treatment based on self-report and clinic’s medication dispensation dates, and c) condom-use behaviors. DISCUSSION: The findings will allow us to compare the efficacy of two complementary interventions, one that requires fewer resources to implement (SMS) and one (peer navigation) that offers more flexibility in terms of the patient barriers to care that it can address. …”
