在静脉注射用药者(IVDUs)中,共用针头和其它药物注射器械已被充分证明是传播艾滋病病毒(HIV)的主要媒介。在非洲,海地以及美国,也已证实异性性行为也是HIV传播的重要方式。与静脉注射用药有关的性传播HIV问题主要集中在IVDUs将病毒传播给他们的非注射用药的性伙伴这点上。相对来说,人们对HIV在IVDUs间的传播关注甚微。至于HIV通过异性性行为在IVDUs间的传播程度,仍不十分清楚。由于许多IVDUs与其他IVDUs有性行为,所以,性行为是HIV在人群中传播的重要手段。
In intravenous drug users (IVDUs), shared needles and other drug injection devices have been well documented as the primary vehicle for the transmission of HIV. In Africa, Haiti and the United States, heterosexuality has also been demonstrated as an important means of HIV transmission. Sexually Transmitted HIV Problems Related to Intravenous Drug Use Focus on the IVDUs that transmit the virus to their non-injectable partners. Relatively little attention has been paid to the spread of HIV among IVDUs. As for the extent of HIV transmission among IVDUs through heterosexual sex, it is not yet clear. Because many IVDUs have sexual intercourse with other IVDUs, sexual activity is an important means of transmitting HIV across the population.
