Implications of PEPFAR's anti-prostitution pledge for HIV prevention among organizations working with sex workers.

Abstract

Even though the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) has facilitated access to treatment for people living with HIV/AIDS across the planet, sex workers are not as fortunate. In this article, based on an oral abstract presentation at AIDS 2010, Melissa Ditmore and Dan Allman present a case-story analysis of the implementation of PEPFAR's anti-prostitution pledge.
