Integrated HIV, STD and Behavior Surveillance Survey in Banteay Meanchey Province, Cambodia: Baseline Findings

AIDS is the leading cause of death for people aged 15-29 in the world, and although rates have declined slightly in recent years, Cambodia still has the highest HIV seroprevalence in Asia. HIV can be transmitted through blood products and injection drug use but heterosexual contact, primarily through the sex trade, remains the major route of HIV transmission in Cambodia.
