TL;DR: An effective response to the HIV epidemic in Senegal should include active work to decrease enforcement of this law, and service providers suspended HIV prevention work with MSM out of fear for their own safety.

TL;DR: A systematic review of HIV literature among key populations in WCA was conducted since the onset of the HIV epidemic, finding that the virus is more concentrated among female sex workers, men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs and clients of FSWs.

TL;DR: The results of the review suggest that although health communication programs represent community-level strategies that have demonstrated the effectiveness in increasing the uptake of HIV testing and decreasing the experienced stigma among people living with HIV, there are limited studies focused on key populations in low- and middle-income settings.

TL;DR: In this paper, the burden of unintended pregnancy among FSWs including maternal and infant outcomes in the context of HIV is largely unknown and half of FSW experiencing termination of pregnancy did so without a medical professional resulting in frequent complications.

TL;DR: The prevalence of sexual behavior stigma among MSM in the United States appears to have a high absolute burden and similar pattern as the same forms of stigma reported by MSM in Sub-Saharan Africa, although results may be influenced by differences in sampling methodology across regions.
