Drug use and HIV in West Africa: a neglected epidemic.

Gilles Raguin1, Annie Lepretre, Idrissa Ba, Ibrahim Ndoye, Abdalla Toufik, Gilles Brucker, Pierre-Marie Girard.   

Abstract

Injecting drug use is poorly documented in West Africa. HIV prevalence studies are still rare. Recent studies show that drug injection is on the rise. There is an urgent need to take this component of the HIV epidemic into account and to establish adapted intervention strategies.
