We welcome this landmark study of how laws, legal policies, and law enforcement practices affect the human rights of sex workers and, in turn, the effectiveness of HIV responses.At the same time, we hope this report will inspire a broader consideration of the problems and potentials at the intersection of public health and criminal justice systems. For HIV/AIDS, criminal law tends to disproportionately penalise groups at the heart of the epidemic—not only in the criminalisation of sex work but also, in many countries, through criminal HIV transmission and exposure laws,2UNAIDSUNDPCriminalization of HIV transmission: policy brief.

We declare that we have no conflicts of interest. Sex workers, HIV, and the law in Asia PacificIn 2008, Redefining AIDS in Asia, a report presented to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, pointed out that “men who buy sex are the single-most powerful driving force in Asia's HIV epidemics”. However, sex work is criminalised in nearly all countries in Asia Pacific, hampering HIV prevention efforts according to a new UN report —Sex Work and the Law in Asia and the Pacific.
