- W6015277 abstract "Since no cure has yet been found for AIDS and an effective vaccine is far off, preventing HIV infection by changing individual behavior is the key to stopping the AIDS epidemic in developing countries. People who have many sex partners and do not use condoms, and people who inject drugs and share unsterilized injecting equipment have the greatest risk of contracting HIV and infecting others. How quickly and extensively an HIV/AIDS epidemic spreads in a given population depends largely upon the extent to which people with many sex partners mix with people with fewer partners. A World Bank research report has, however, found that people who engage in high-risk behavior act to reduce their risk of contracting and spreading HIV when they have the knowledge and means to do so and a supportive community. The report highlights the following strategies to reduce risky behavior: providing information, lowering the costs of safer behavior, and raising the costs of risky behavior. Governments' main responsibilities in preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS are reducing the negative externalities of high-risk behavior and producing public goods. Without government action, individuals and firms will not have the incentives to do what is necessary. The need to act now and mobilizing political support are discussed." @default.
