- Abstract: Objectives: Increased sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections (STBBI) testing can reduce the burden of disease among Two-Spirit, gay, bisexual, transgender, and other queer Black, Indigenous, people of colour (2SGBTQ+ BIPOC). However, this population encounters barriers, such as discrimination, when accessing in-person STBBI testing services. Digital STBBI testing, such as self-testing/collection kits ordered online and digital requisitions, may address some of these barriers. Our aim was to understand acceptability of free digital STBBI testing among 2SGBTQ+ BIPOC living in Ontario, Canada.
Design: We approached this analysis using Implementation Science and Critical Race Theory. We conducted interviews and focus groups with 21 2SGBTQ + BIPOC individuals from 2020-2021. Participants were asked about their perceptions of the benefits and drawbacks of digital STBBI testing, populations that would benefit from using these services, and recommendations for how these services may be implemented in Ontario. Interviews and focus groups were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis.
Results: Six themes emerged. Digital STBBI testing services: (1) May reduce oppression experienced by 2SGBTQ + BIPOC when testing in-person; (2) Should address the unique needs that 2SGBTQ + BIPOC experience due to other intersecting identities they possess; (3) Should adapt their services to suit the varying cultural contexts and living circumstances of 2SGBTQ + BIPOC; (4) Should be accessible to 2SGBTQ + BIPOC who hold diverse or no documentation; (5) Should be offered in multiple languages; (6) May be inaccessible to those without Internet access or devices.
Conclusion: Digital STBBI testing is one strategy that may reduce discrimination experienced by 2SGBTQ + BIPOC when getting tested in-person. However, digital STBBI testing services may not address all the needs of 2SGBTQ + BIPOC. Racism and other forms of oppression embedded into in-person and digital testing services will need to be addressed to meet the needs of this diverse population. - Contributed Indexing: Keywords: Black, Indigenous, and other people of colour (BIPOC); Good health and well-being; Ontario, Canada; Two-Spirit, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (2SGBTQ+); digital testing; oppression; qualitative; reduced inequalities; sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections (STBBI)
