AIDS is on the rise in many Muslim countries, driven by men having sex with other men in secret because of homophobia, religious intolerance and fear of being jailed or executed, according to a new study.



The new report, released last week in the journal PLoS Medicine, was led by researchers from the Qatar branch of Weill Cornell Medical College who drew from dozens of smaller studies in Arabic, French and English.

About 2 to 3 percent of men in the region have sex with other men, consistent with global averages, the study found. But condom use is low, gay and bisexual prostitution is common, and many married men hide their bisexuality and risk infecting their wives. In some countries, even male prostitutes often marry for appearances’ sake.

Truck drivers, prisoners and street children often engage in risk behaviors for H.I.V. infection; in Pakistan, infection rates are rising rapidly among transgender prostitutes known as hijra.

The lowest rates of condom use were reported in populous countries like Egypt and Pakistan, while they were highest in Sudan (above), Oman and Lebanon.

To fight their nascent epidemics, some countries have adopted compulsory H.I.V. testing for marriage licenses and work visas.

Accurate statistics on some aspects of health are hard to get from governments in some Middle Eastern countries. For example, international health authorities say that the world’s highest rates of birth defects are in Muslim countries where cousins sometimes marry, but that governments are reluctant to admit it.



පේනවා නේද මුන්ගේ තියෙන මෝලේ තරම , පොඩි කෙල්ලන්ට කෙලිනවා මදිවට දැන් මුන් කොල්ලෝ ගහන්නත් පටන් අරන්

    Aids

    Regarding Aids . there are less number of people having Aids in Muslim Countries compared to other countries. Because if you practice Islam you can not be gay. You can not go to prostitutes.
    How people get infected.
    HIV infections via blood transfusion is there.
    HIV infection using Drugs using same needle or shaving using same razor is there.
    HIV infection via Adultery such as gay , bisexual , prostitution is much higher than the rest.

    Muslim people are less likely to be commuting adultery then the rest. That does not mean Muslims do not commit adultery. Some do but they are very few. compared to whole of population.

    In some christian countries HIV is well beyond 50% of population.

    That is why you see grand parents are taking care of the grand children in Africa.

    In Botswana you cannot go to public hospitals because of HIV. Where you have to go to private. There is lots of Sri Lankans there check with them .
