Spatial Patterns in PrEP Accessibility and the Link between PrEP Access & SDOH
Description
Dr. Hui (Henry) Luan joins EPITalk host and co-author, Dr. Patrick Sullivan, for a jam-packed discussion about their recent study on PrEP accessibility measurement. “Spatial accessibility of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP): different measure choices and the implications for detecting shortage areas and examining its association with social determinants of health” can be found in the October 2023 issue (Vol. 86) of Annals of Epidemiology.
