Most research investigating risk practices for HIV infection and other STDs amongst sex workers has focused on street prostitutes to the exclusion of those prostitutes who work in different sections of the industry. This is largely a consequence of methodological difficulties in accessing prostitutes other than those who work on the streets. HIV prevention research and interventions must address the fact that risk practices may vary according to the type of prostitution engaged in. This paper reports on risk practices for HIV infection and other STDs amongst prostitutes working in legalized brothels in Victoria, Australia. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed by representatives of a sex worker organization whose collaboration was an important factor in obtaining a large sample of prostitutes. The study found low levels of risk practices for prostitutes working in legal brothels in Victoria. The major risk practices indentified were injecting drug use and condom non-use with non-paying partners.
大多数针对性工作者中艾滋病毒感染及其他性传播疾病风险行为的研究都聚焦于街头妓女，而将该行业其他领域的妓女排除在外。这主要是由于在接触街头以外工作的妓女时存在方法上的困难。艾滋病毒预防研究及干预措施必须考虑到风险行为可能因从事的卖淫类型而异这一事实。本文报告了澳大利亚维多利亚州合法妓院中性工作者的艾滋病毒感染及其他性传播疾病风险行为。一份自填式问卷由一个性工作者组织的代表分发，该组织的合作是获取大量妓女样本的重要因素。研究发现，维多利亚州合法妓院中的性工作者风险行为水平较低。确定的主要风险行为是注射吸毒以及与非付费性伴不使用避孕套。
