Addressing COVID-19 Misinformation and Resiliency Among Latinos Living with HIV: Formative Research Guiding the Latinos Unidos Microgame Intervention
The effects of mitigation strategies including shelter-in-place orders and social distancing combined with the COVID “infodemic” disseminated by media may interact synergistically to worsen already compromised mental health outcomes and medical treatment of PLWH. We propose that a microgame intervention targeting individual resilience skill building and media literacy could be mobilized to protect the mental health of Latino PLWH as well as promote HIV care during the pandemic.
