HIV-1 antibody was detected in 6.0 percent of prisoners in an Ethiopian prison. HIV-1 seropositivity was strongly associated with positive VDRL status (RR = 3.7) and recent admission to prison (RR = 3.5). Seropositive prisoners were more likely to have prostitute contacts. No correlation was found between seropositivity and number of sexual contacts, long-term sex partners, or dental extractions. HIV-1 infection in this area may be of recent origin and the high prevalence may reflect rates in the surrounding community.
在埃塞俄比亚一所监狱中，6.0%的囚犯检测出HIV-1抗体。HIV-1血清阳性与VDRL检测呈阳性状态（相对危险度=3.7）以及近期入狱（相对危险度=3.5）密切相关。血清阳性的囚犯更有可能与妓女有接触。在血清阳性与性接触次数、长期性伴侣数量或拔牙之间未发现相关性。该地区的HIV-1感染可能是近期出现的，高流行率可能反映了周边社区的感染率。
