E-book Glue Sniffing & Other Risky Practices Among Street Children in Urban Bangladesh
Bangladesh has been successful to date in controlling the spread of HIV in the general population, with a prevalence of less than 0.1%. The main reason for this low prevalence is the early and sustained HIV prevention programmes targeting high risk groups backed by a state-of-the-art surveillance system. Another contributing protective factor is the high rates of male circumcision. There is, however, a concentrated HIV epidemic among injecting drug users (IDU), primarily due to sharing of unclean syringes and needles. As a result, the rate of new infections is still on the rise in Bangladesh.
