In February 2015, an outbreak of recently acquired HIV infections among people who inject drugs (PWID) was identified in Dublin, following similar outbreaks in Greece and Romania in 2011. We compared drug and risk behaviours among 15 HIV cases and 39 controls. Injecting a synthetic cathinone, snow blow, was associated with recent HIV infection (AOR: 49; p=0.003). Prevention and control efforts are underway among PWID in Dublin, but may also be needed elsewhere in Europe.
2015 年 2 月,都柏林发现了一起新近感染艾滋病毒的注射吸毒者(PWID)疫情,此前 2011 年在希腊和罗马尼亚也发生过类似的疫情。我们比较了 15 例艾滋病毒病例和 39 名对照者的药物和风险行为。注射合成卡西酮,俗称“雪冰”,与近期感染艾滋病毒有关(比值比:49;p=0.003)。都柏林正在对 PWID 进行预防和控制工作,但在欧洲其他地方也可能需要采取这些措施。
