Calculation of risk-group-specific rates of HIV infection in the adult population of Israel results in the identification of four groups comprising, in total, less than 2% of the population, each of which carries a relative risk of infection of 500 or more. An estimated 90% of infections to date have occurred in these four groups. Rather than dissipate HIV prevention efforts over the entire population, 98% of whom are at zero or near-zero risk of infection, efforts to prevent HIV transmission should concentrate on the groups whose relative risk is enormously high and in whom there is the greatest potential for preventing further transmission.
对以色列成年人口中特定风险组的艾滋病毒感染率进行计算后发现，有四个组总计占人口不到2%，每组的感染相对风险为500或更高。估计迄今为止90%的感染发生在这四个组中。艾滋病毒预防工作不应分散在整个人口中（其中98%的人感染风险为零或接近零），而应集中于那些相对风险极高且最有潜力预防进一步传播的组。
