What are the Structural Drivers of Spread Across Eurasia? Driver # 1 Geographic proximity to overland drug trafficking routes Driver # 2 Limited use of HIV prevention measures with demonstrated efficacy for IDU transmission Driver # 3 Punitive and legalistic approaches to IDUs

Structural limits on prevention & care for IDU • US continues ban on federal funding for Needle Syringe Exchange Programs (NSEP) in US and globally • Methadone Maintenance Therapy (MMT) remains illegal in many countries Ex: Russian Federation • Across 50 developing countries, 34,000 IDU on ARV: 30,000 were in Brazil Source: Aceijas, et al, Addiction, 2006

Trends HIV among MSMmid ’90- now • HAART introduced, resulting in dramatic improvement of survival of AIDS patients, as well as reduction in AIDS cases • HIV/AIDS becomes a “chronic disease” and “less visible” • Rise in “unsafe sex” and STI , including outbreaks of Syphylis and LGV
Sexual orientation of male syphilis cases registered in the sentinel network of clinicians, Belgium, Oct 2000 - Jan 2003 From: IPH, Belgium
Possible explanations for increased risk behaviour • HAART changed the face of the epidemic: less AIDS and less deaths • Prevention fatigue: challenge of maintaining safe sex for an extended period • Changing environment : internet as new way of recruiting partners • Young MSM (<20y) sexually active earlier , and never exposed to AIDS as a killer disease

MSM structural risk contexts • Criminalization and stigma limit MSM access to HIV prevention, treatment and care • MSM understudied in emerging contexts: MSM not included in national HIV surveillance in Thailand, Vietnam, Senegal • Only one African study (Wade, et al) of MSM risk and HIV rates • Fewer than 1 in 10 MSM worldwide have access to necessary prevention services Sources: UNAIDS; USAID, 2004; Wade 2005; Go 2006 personal communication; HRW; UNAIDS 2006
