THE BT GAY BARS MELBOURNE
Asian-born gay, bisexual and other men who have sex wh men (gbMSM) newly arrived Atralia are more than four tim as likely than their Atralian-born unterparts to be diagnosed wh cint HIV. Our aim was to explore experienc of Asian-born gbMSM newly arrived Atralia and attendg a sexual health centre wh regards to their knowledge of and preference for HIV preventn strategi. Twenty-four gbMSM aged 20–30 years attendg Melbourne Sexual Health Centre who were born Asia and arrived Atralia the precedg four years, participated semi-stctured face-to-face terviews om 8th May 2019 and 23rd December 2019. Men were exclud if they were livg wh HIV. Interviews were rerd, transcribed verbatim and analysed thematilly. Men reported ltle knowledge of HIV preventn strategi outsi of ndom e prr to g to Atralia. Although participants reported basic knowledge of HIV transmissn and treatment, exposure to sexual inty and HIV-related stigma their untri of birth meant they imaged a HIV diagnosis would be vastatg. Most relied on ndoms to stay HIV negative however their nsistency of e varied. Seven men were on pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP); all but one started PrEP after g to Atralia. Many dited tert PrEP but scribed as too expensive given they do not have accs to ernment-subsidized healthre. Sexual health unsellg and nnectns wh LGBTQI muny groups appeared to facilate PrEP and nsistent ndom e. Asian-born gbMSM newly-arrived to Atralia may have limed knowledge of HIV preventn strategi asi om ndom e. Increased nnectns wh sexual health servic and LGBTQI muni may facilate more effective HIV preventn strategi. * asian gay community melbourne *

I feel more fortable to do that, so yeah…When you first accept you're gay and you know who you are and you [learn] you have higher risk, like to get some fectn, you do feel like necsary, oh I have to go to tt, I have to e a ndom to protectn and maybe I have the obligatn to tell other gay people and my gay iends to do the same thgs. It’s hard for a straight person to relate to a gay person’s feelgs bee they n’t really put themselv our sho.

It’s not the same as talkg to a gay person self, bee the stggl and what they feel is more le as to what you’re feelg.
