Study Looks At HIV, Risk Behaviors Among Male Clients Of Sex Workers In Tijuana, Mexico
"A large percentage" of U.S. and Mexican men who regularly engage in sexual activity with sex workers in Tijuana, Mexico, do not use condoms and have a history of substance and alcohol use, according to a study published in the online journal AIDS, the Los Angeles Times" blog "L.A. Now" reports. The study, by researchers from Mexico and the University of California-San Diego, surveyed 400 men - both Mexico and U.S. residents - and found that half of the men had unprotected sex with a female sex worker within the last four months. Researchers noted that although Tijuana authorities require that sex workers be registered and tested regularly for HIV, "only about half of [sex workers] have registered or been tested," according to the blog. Thomas Patterson of the UC-San Diego"s department of psychiatry and the Veterans Affairs health center, said the findings indicate a need for an educational campaign targeting men who frequent sex workers (Perry, 7/11).

"The AAPM is very excited about the signing of this agreement. While our two organisations have always been supportive of each other and worked collaboratively in the past, having an agreement that we will continue to develop our relationship and support each other"s organisation brings a new dimension. I am sure AAPM members from all areas of healthcare will benefit from this alliance," said Marina Fulcher, National President, AAPM. "We are also keen to work collaboratively to develop further res to assist practice managers in their day to day work. The RACGP proudly supports the role of practice managers as a critical part of our broader practice team. As general practice care becomes more complex, GPs are looking to members of our practice teams, led by our practice managers, to provide the support we need to ensure we can focus on doing what we do best; provide high quality care to our patients," said Dr Mitchell.
