Note. For HIV status, negative (confirmed) refers to those participants who self-reported a negative HIV status and tested negative. Negative (unconfirmed) refers to participants who reported a negative HIV status, but did not complete testing. Positive refers to participants who tested positive. Unknown refers to participants who self-reported Unknown and did not complete testing. The total n for income does not equal 100% because participants under 18 were not asked. The participants who were currently on PrEP were not included as part of PrEP willingness variable in the analyses.
