Sexual risk behaviour is the underlying driving force of HIV transmission. The discovery and introduction of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has led to significant changes in the treatment and management of HIV, the benefits of which manifest as reduced viral load and consequently attenuated morbidity and mortality in HIV-infected individuals. As the benefits of ART are realized, prevention research is increasingly focusing on the sexual risk behaviour of subpopulations of HIV-infected individuals with known positive serostatus, who are at high risk of transmitting HIV. This study examines the levels of sexual risk behaviour of HIV-infected individuals seeking care across different service settings in Cape Town, South Africa. Furthermore, it seeks to understand the risk factors associated with sexual activity that could lead to secondary transmission. 2015-01-02T09:17:45Z 2015-01-02T09:17:45Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MPH http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10996 eng application/pdf Department of Public Health and Family Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
