In this technical brief, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides a focused review of the evidence on methods for enhancing uptake of voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) among men and adolescent boys who are at higher risk of HIV acquisition through vaginal sex compared to the general male populations in their countries. The brief also documents approaches to operating under pandemic restrictions that may be useful to programmes as they restart or rescale their operations. It updates Chapter 5 of the 2020 WHO VMMC guidelines, which summarised the evidence on methods for enhancing uptake among all men and boys.
