We should remember though that what this demonstrates is a high correlation between PrEP use and risky sexual behaviour. It does not suggest that PrEP use encourages that behaviour - I don’t doubt that in some cases it does, but it’s difficult to think it does so generally.
- tallanvor 7y agoHonestly, if you ask just about anyone in the community you'll find the general agreement is that PrEP does result in the decreased use of condoms, so it's not surprising that there is a general increase of other STDs. But as more people start using PrEP and get tested regularly due to the general requirements, it is possible that STD rates will decline, but we're probably a few years away from seeing that in the statistics.
