The wisdom of mistrust: qualitative insights from transgender women who participated in PrEP research in Lima, Peru
CONCLUSIONS: Findings highlight the wisdom inherent in PrEP mistrust as a reflection of trans women's experiences that underscore the broken bonds of trust between communities, researchers and the research enterprise. PrEP mistrust is amplified through perceived paradoxes that suggest to trans women that they are key experimental participants but not target PrEP users outside of research settings. Findings highlight the urgent need to reframe mistrust not as a characteristic of trans women to be addressed through education and outreach, but as a systemic institutional- and industry-level problem replicated, manifested and ultimately to be corrected, through global HIV science.PMID:34569152 | DOI:10.1002/jia2.25769
