9 Leadership Among MSM of Color
10 Social Determinants of HIV: Focus on Stigma Valerie A. Earnshaw, Ph.D. Boston Children s Hospital, Harvard Medical School
11 Social Determinants of Health World Health Organization Definition: the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age (which are) shaped by the distribution of money, power and resources at global, national and local levels
12 Key Determinants: HealthyPeople Economic Stability Poverty Food + housing security Employment 2. Education High school + beyond Language + literacy 3. Social and Community Context Social cohesion Incarceration + institutionalization Stigma 4. Health and Health Care Access to health care Health literacy 5. Neighborhood and Built Environment Access to healthy foods Housing quality Violence and crime Environmental conditions
13 Social Determinants of Health World Health Organization Definition: the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age (which are) shaped by the distribution of money, power and resources at global, national and local levels mostly responsible for health inequities the unfair and avoidable differences in health status seen within and between countries
14 studies, regions and demographics reported comparable UAI, fewer sex partners, less substance use, but greater undiagnosed HIV infection and less access to ART [59]. A more recent meta-analysis of 176 US studies affirmed the results of the first meta-analysis and also found that black MSM have a 40% greater odds than other MSM of engaging in any behavior protective of HIV transmission[9]. Scientific opinion explaining low income, to be uninsured or to attend clinical visits. A separate analysis of HIV surveillance data found that an additional 38,920 black MSM would need to be placed on treatment to raise viral suppression to a comparable level as white MSM [62], which may be difficult to achieve since some black MSM in high prevalence jurisdictions remain undiagnosed even when engaged in health care and informing their physicians about their homosexual behavior [63]. HIV Inequities: Black MSM Disparities persist between black and other MSM throughout treatment cascade (24 comparative studies) Undiagnosed HIV OR, 6.38 ( ) Lower income (<$20k) OR, 3.42 ( ) HIV detection Diagnosed HIV+ OR, 3.00 ( ) ART utilization/ access OR, 0.56 ( ) >200 CD4 cells/mm 3 before ART initiation OR, 0.40 ( ) Health insurance OR, 0.47 ( ) Healthcare visits OR, 0.61 ( ) ART adherence OR, 0.50 ( ) HIV suppression OR, 0.51 ( ) Viral suppression (Millett, 2012) Fig. 3. Disparities persist between black and other MSM throughout treatment cascade (24 comparative studies). Beyrer et al (2013)
15 Social Determinants of HIV Economic Stability Transactional sex Afford prevention + treatment options Education Understanding of HIV prevention Navigation of health care system Health and Healthcare STIs, comorbidities Neighborhood and Built Environment Social networks Risk environments Social and Community Context Stigma
16 Figure 1 Stigma and HIV Disparities Model Earnshaw et al (2013)
17 Stigma à HIV Risk Inequity? Risk behaviors (sex, substance use) of Black and Latino MSM aren t greater than other groups Black and Latino MSM (especially young!) à highest incidence Structural Level Racial residential segregation à risk environments Medical mistrust à lower condom use Individual Level: Perceiver Racial stereotypes among Dr.s à lower PrEP prescription (Calabrese et al., 2014) Individual Level: Target Perceived, internalized stigma à greater substance misuse Perceived stigma à less condom use
18 Stigma à HIV Treatment Structural Level Racial residential segregation à quality of care Historical trauma / medical mistrust à access to care Individual Level: Perceiver Stereotypes among Dr.s à delays in prescribing medication Prejudice among Dr.s à worse care provided Individual Level: Target Internalized stigma à lower access, less medication adherence Perceived (anticipated?) stigma à lower engagement
19 Stigma à HIV Survival Structural Level Racial residential segregation, historical trauma à chronic stressors à faster disease progression Individual Level: Target Perceived + anticipated stigma à chronic stressors à faster disease progression
