Considerable increase in unprotected sex found in French/Canadian gay survey

A French and Canadian online survey of gay men and other men who have sex with men (MSM) appears to have uncovered a dramatic increase in the rates of unprotected sex with casual partners, potentially serodiscordant sex, and sexually transmitted infections.

It also appears to document an increased proportion of men who identify as bisexual, and finds that only a minority of men identify themselves as belonging to a distinct gay community.

Aidsmap.com reported on interim figures from this survey on 15 August ; the survey is now complete and the revised figures are below.
