Sexual behaviour research and HIV/AIDS.

J Pierre Fauchard Acad. 1994 Dec;8(4):131-2. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/99073066

Abstract: To design effective ways of reducing HIV transmission through sexual intercourse, which accounts for about 90% of all infections among adults and adolescents, we need to know more about how sex occurs and is understood in different cultures. Dr Peter Aggleton, who leaves GPA this summer after two years as head of its social and behavioral studies and support unit (SSB), explains the Programme's work in this area.
