PROSTITUTION AND HIV: WHAT DO WE KNOW AND WHERE MIGHT RESEARCH BE TARGETED IN THE FUTURE?

The current state of knowledge about the relationship between prostitution and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was reviewed, and areas where research might be profitably directed in the future were identified. The author suggests that a wider geographic focus would be useful in AIDS research, as would population monitoring studies, studies of former prostitutes, negotiations between prostitute and client, the impact of sexually transmitted disease on HIV infection, and the prevalence of male clients and the extent of HIV infection among the clients.

AIDS, 8(2):1215-1226, 1994. (110 references)
