本文介绍了中国艾滋病传播和控制的现状。中国有大量的男男性行为者（男男性行为者），自20世纪90年代以来，由于最近的社会变化，他们在许多方面变得非常活跃。一些调查表明，很多男男性接触者从事高风险行为。此外，大多数男男性接触者在生活中有时也与女性发生过性接触，这可能会导致艾滋病毒传播给女性。一些报告记载，艾滋病毒在男男性行为者中日益猖獗，因为现在有超过1%的男男性行为者受到感染。政治、文化和习俗因素可能阻碍预防艾滋病毒在男男性行为者中传播的干预活动。幸运的是，中国许多城市已经看到，男同性恋者与负责任的机构合作，采取了一定的干预措施。总的情况是有希望的。作者预测，如果当局对这一问题更加敏感，卫生服务机构对男男性行为者社区作出坚定不移的努力，参与男男性行为者承担必要的责任，中国男男性行为者中艾滋病毒的快速传播可能会在几年内停止。
This article profiles current status of spread and control of HIV/AIDS in China. China has a significant population of MSM (men who have sex with men) and they have been becoming very much alive in many ways since 1990s due to recent social changes. Some surveys indicate that great many of MSM are engaged in high-risk behaviors. In addition, majority of MSM have also experienced sexual encounters with women sometimes in their lives, which possibly contribute to spread of HIV to women. Some reports documented that HIV is becoming rampant among MSM since more than 1% of them are now infected. Political, cultural and custom elements could hinder intervention activities against HIV spread among MSM. Fortunately, many cities in China have seen that MSM were in cooperation with responsible institutions carrying out certain intervention measures. The general situation is promising. The authors forecast that the fast HIV spread among MSM of China could possibly be halted within several years when the authorities become more sensible to this issue, health service institutions offer unswerving efforts toward the MSM community and those who involve in MSM undertakes necessary responsibilities.
