A sample of 1,520 MSM participants included study respondents (n = 308) and their network members (n = 1,212). Additionally, multiple logistic regression was used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (AOR) and to assess relationships between serostatus, sexual behaviors, and sociodemographic indicators. We estimated mixing coefficients (r) based on survey-generated egonets. We investigated the relationship between serostatus, sexual behaviors, and self-reported sex networks in a sample of MSM in Athens, Greece, generated using respondent driven sampling. The primary objective of the study was to characterize MSM in Greece, their sexual behaviors, and sexual network mixing patterns. Network factors are increasingly understood to drive transmission in epidemics.
HIV incidence among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Greece remains unchanged despite effective response to a recent outbreak among people who inject drugs (PWID).
