摘要

摘要多年来，人们一直从非规范性的角度看待印度的医疗保健系统，将性少数群体和性别少数群体边缘化。尽管缺乏既定数据，但据估计，印度有4540万人属于LGBTQ群体，这些人面临着各种身心健康障碍的风险增加。鉴于该国性人口结构的快速变化，以及立法和其他因素的变化，本文系统地回顾了LGBTQ个人对各种传染病和非传染病的脆弱性，以及初级医疗系统的缺陷和将其纳入其中的必要性。

Primary healthcare for the Indian LGBTQ community – A call for inclusion

Abstract For years now, the Indian healthcare system has been viewed through the lens of heteronormativity, sidelining sexual and gender minorities. Despite the lack of established data, an estimated 45.4 million people in India belong to the LGBTQ community and these individuals face increased risk of various physical and mental health disorders. Given the rapidly changing sexual demographic of the country, along with the changes of legislation and other factors that mold it, this paper systemically reviews LGBTQ individuals vulnerabilities toward various communicable and non-communicable diseases along with the lacunae in the primary healthcare system and the need for their inclusion in it.
