Presents precise, authoritative advice on measures that can be taken to prevent transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus through sexual intercourse. The book opens with a brief overview of what is known about the modes of HIV transmission, followed by a detailed explanation of factors influencing the risk of acquiring HIV infection through sexual intercourse. Factors considered include conditions influencing the probability that the sexual partner is infected, the type of sexual contact involved, the amount of virus present in the blood or secretions of the infected partner, and the presence of other sexually transmitted diseases. The second section presents guidelines for prevention through the use of education, the promotion and supply of condoms and spermicides, the use of HIV antibody testing in association with pretest and post-test counselling, and partner notification, including a list of six points that should form the basis of partner referral guidelines. Specific recommendations are then given for actions to be taken by public health authorities, health care providers, HIV-infected persons and their partners, and the general public. The second half of the book records consensus statements, formulated during recent WHO consultations, concerning the role of sexually transmitted diseases as a risk factor for HIV transmission and the role of partner notification activities within the context of national AIDS prevention and control programmes. Points to consider prior to establishing an HIV partner notification programme are clearly indicated
