摘要
We conducted a survey to assess the seroprevalence and risk behaviors for HIV infection in 2,009 individuals in Kohgiloyeh and Boyerahmad province, in Southwest of Iran. Blood samples were drawn from each participant and tested for anti-HIV1/2 antibodies. HIV antibodies were detected in 36 (1.8%) blood samples among a total of 2,009 participants. The rate of infection in inmates was 2.7% while this rate was 9.9% in injection drug users. Correlation between HIV infection and sex, age, marital status, history of imprisonment, injection drug use, and place of residence were significant. Improving of the surveillance in this community through supervision and monitoring of infected people is needed.
