  11. Routes of HIV Transmission HIV infection in India is mostly through sexual route. Just 2 out of 100 HIV positive people are IDU. Why bother with IDU programmes when the ratio is less as compared to sexual route? NACO Annual Report 2010-11

  12. HIV Prevalence – Various Groups 9 out of 100 IDUs are infected with HIV (HIV Sentinel Surveillance, 2008-09). This is the average for the country. However, high rate of HIV (>5%) among IDUs in many sites/ cities ensures a high chance of spread of HIV from IDU to IDU as well as to the general community

  13. IDUs & HIV RISK RINGS Wives and Wives and girlfriends of girlfriends of substance users Clients clients of FSWs Female Sex Workers (FSWs) IDU IDUs HIV Husbands and boyfriends of FSWs Substance Users HIV among IDUs is not confined to IDU group alone; it spreads from IDUs to other population groups, thus generalising the HIV epidemic
