PRiSM - HIV Prevalence and Risk behavioural Survey of Men Who Have Sex With Men in Hong Kong 2008 (Fact Sheet)

The number of HIV reports in men who have sex with men (MSM) was increasing in recent years. The first PRiSM survey in 2006 revealed an HIV prevalence of 4.05%, which was many folds higher than that of other at-risk populations. Department of Health (DH) commissioned the Chinese University of Hong Kong to repeat the PRiSM survey in 2008. It helped to understand the trend of HIV prevalence among MSM and provided data for the planning of prevention activities.
