abstract: 'Scant empirical research from Asia has addressed the impact of COVID-19
on sexual minority health. We aimed to explore and understand the impact
of COVID-19 on income security, mental health, HIV risk and access to
health services among men who have sex with men (MSM) in India. We
conducted a concurrent mixed methods study from April to June 2020,
including a cross-sectional survey and in-depth semi-structured
interviews with MSM recruited from three non-governmental organisations
providing HIV prevention services in Chandigarh, India. We examined the
associations of sexual minority stressors (sexual stigma, internalised
homonegativity), economic stressors, and stress due to social
distancing, with depression and anxiety, HIV risk, and access to health
services. Survey findings (n = 132) indicated that internalised
homonegativity and stress related to social distancing were
significantly associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms. Results
also showed reduced access to condoms, HIV testing and counselling
services. Qualitative findings (n = 10) highlighted adverse economic
impacts of COVID-19, including loss of employment/wages and engaging in
survival sex work, which contributed to psychological distress and HIV
risk. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in considerable psychological
and financial distress among low socioeconomic status MSM in India,
including those involved in sex work - communities already marginalised
in economic, family and healthcare sectors. Structural interventions to
improve access to mental health and HIV services and decrease financial
burden are critical to mitigate the impact of COVID-19.'
