AI simplified
Abstract
Sixty-six percent of the study subjects had migrated to a city for a temporary job.
- Migrants had higher rates of premarital sex (62%) and multiple sexual partners (12%) compared to non-migrants (52% and 6%, respectively).
- Among those with multiple sexual partners, only 9% of migrants and 8% of non-migrants reported consistent condom use with non-spousal partners.
- Both groups demonstrated a low level of knowledge regarding HIV and AIDS.
- Very few perceived themselves to be at risk of HIV infection, with only 15% of migrants and 10% of non-migrants acknowledging potential risk.
