“…People who exchange sex have been a priority population for initiating PrEP in Washington state 28 . Although we found levels of PrEP use among cisgender men and TGD persons who exchange sex in this analysis (48% and 32%, respectively) to be higher than prior studies of PrEP uptake (range, 5%–22%), 21,29 PrEP is still underutilized among PWES who are MSM or TGD persons, women who exchange sex for money or drugs, and persons who inject drugs. The barriers to HIV and HCV treatment and to PrEP in this population are likely similar to barriers to health care in general.…”
