ART = antiretroviral therapy. CI = confidence intervals. OR = odds ratio.
a Transmen and transwomen are included in the gender groups with which they self-identified. Due to small numbers, those who identify as non-binary/in another way (representing 0.5% of Positive Voices responders) are excluded from the binary gender breakdown. Gay and bisexual men are identified as MSM (men who have sex with men) in the main text.
b Economically inactive includes individuals who are not in employment or unemployed, including those who are retired, looking after family, long-term sick, carers, students, and those whose immigration status does not permit them to do paid work.
c Viral suppression defined as VL <200 copies/ml in last reported viral load result in 2017.
