Refugees and AIDS : UNAIDS point of view

04 April 1997

This paper discusses the precarious existence of refugees and why HIV/AIDS is such a critical factor to them (a lack of a safe blood supply, the emergence of prostitution in exchange for food and other essentials, and an insufficient supply of condoms and health care). The report also documents various facts and figures, and offers suggestions as to how issues regarding refugees and AIDS can be handled.
