HIV i-Base report from the 6th Joint Conference of the British HIV Association (BHIVA) and the British Association for Sexual Health and HIV (BASHH)

The first was a retrospective study of drug resistance against gonorrhoea from expanded access to doxyPEP.

A second study looked at equity of access to doxyPEP several months after it had been made widely available.
