研究设计:1998年至2001年,对18~60岁男性性工作者进行了3次以人群为基础的电话调查(n=5159)。结果:约10.8%~14%的被调查者在过去6个月内光顾过暗娼。在性服务工作者的男性客户中,约25%的人不总是使用避孕套,4%至6%的人感染了性传播疾病,16%的人接受了艾滋病毒抗体检测,20%或更多的人报告在过去6个月内有4个或更多的性伴侣。随着时间的推移,避孕套的使用没有改善。跨境(从香港到大陆)商业性行为很常见。结论:暗娼男性客户的危险行为水平仍然很高。相关预防方案的整体有效性和覆盖面受到质疑。
Background: Male clients of female sex workers (FSWs) are an important group vulnerable to HIV infection.Goals: The goal was to administer and assess behavioral surveillance surveys of male clients of FSWs in Hong Kong.Study Design: Three population-based telephone surveys of males aged 18 to 60 were conducted from 1998 to 2001 (n = 5159).Results: Of all respondents, about 10.8% to 14% had patronized FSWs in the previous 6 months. Among male clients of FSWs, about 25% did not always use condoms, 4% to 6% had contracted a sexually transmitted disease, 16% had undergone HIV antibody testing, and 20% or more reported having four or more sex partners in the previous 6 months. There was no improvement in condom use over time. Cross-border (from Hong Kong to mainland China) commercial sex was common.Conclusion: The level of risk behaviors associated with male clients of FSWs remained substantial. The overall effectiveness and coverage of relevant prevention programs were questioned.
