 THIS WEEK'S FACTOID:
"A large population-based study of married women in
India shows the prevalence of HIV infection is 4 times greater among those who
experience physical and sexual violence at the hands of their partners compared
with women who are not abused.
With the third-largest number of HIV cases of any country in the world, India is
recognized as the source of increasing HIV prevalence. Recent estimates reveal
0.22% of women and 0.36% of men aged 15 to 49 years are HIV positive.
The authors also note that despite reductions in the prevalence of infection
among India's general population, women account for a rising percentage of all
HIV cases, with husbands' risk behavior described as a major source of women's
infection. They also point out that IPV has been linked to heterosexual
transmission of HIV to women in India and elsewhere." JAMA. 2008;300:703-710.
