to Encourage Safer Sex Practices
In the recently conducted BSS, about 60% of participants reported having
sex in the last month, but the percentage of these clients reporting that
they always used condoms was low. However, the proportion of those
always using condoms with regular partners has increased compared to
the previous BSS (Figure 14). The proportion of those always using a
condom during sex with casual partners decreased compared to the
previous BSS. Overall, the number of IDUs who do not always use a
condom is much higher compared to those who use condoms consistently
(Figure 15). Safer sex education and appropriate condom promotion
strategies need to be emphasized to promote safer behaviours amongst
IDUs. Of those who reported having sex in the last month, 44% reported
having sex with more than one category of partner (regular, casual, sold
sex, or bought sex). These results highlight the ongoing risk of HIV
transmission to the sexual partners of IDUs and into the general
