Summary

This study tested whether a pay-it-forward approach—where one person's donation covers testing for the next person—could increase gonorrhea and chlamydia testing among men in China. Over 1,200 men who had sex in the past year but hadn't been tested recently took part. The goal was to see if this community-driven strategy works better than standard testing offers.
