Abstract
Event-driven PrEP (also known as ‘on-demand’ PrEP or ‘2-1-1’ PrEP) is an effective form of taking PrEP but has only recently been endorsed in clinical guidelines in Australia since 2019. Using several data sources, we assessed awareness and knowledge of event-driven PrEP and trends in use.
