Note. Estimates are from a multivariable modified Poisson regression model with robust standard errors. Model 3.1 was adjusted for all variables listed in the table. Models 3.2 and 3.3 were adjusted for all variables listed, excluding ‘Subgroup’. ICCU: Inconsistent Condom Use with male partners; PrEP: HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis.
