WEBINAR: Syphilis among gay, bisexual, two-spirit and other MSM – A resource for population-specific prevention

A new population-specific resource on syphilis prevention among gay, bisexual, two-spirit and other men who have sex with men (MSM) has been developed by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).

In this webinar, PHAC will highlight key findings from a synthesis of research, including an assessment of the effectiveness of behavioural interventions, and provide promising practices and evidence-informed strategies for the prevention of syphilis among gay men and other MSM.

This presentation will be of particular interest to individuals working in public health and the community based sector undertaking sexually transmitted and blood borne infection prevention and control among gay men and other MSM.
