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.
我们在伊朗西南部的戈尔戈勒省和博耶拉赫马省对 2009 个人进行了一项调查，以评估艾滋病毒感染的血清流行率和风险行为。从每个参与者中抽取血液样本，并检测抗 HIV1/2 抗体。在总共 2009 名参与者中，有 36 份（1.8%）血液样本检测到 HIV 抗体。囚犯中的感染率为 2.7%，而注射吸毒者中的感染率为 9.9%。HIV 感染与性别、年龄、婚姻状况、监禁史、注射吸毒和居住地之间存在相关性。需要通过监督和监测感染者来改善该社区的监测工作。
