This publication addresses research
questions related to an increase in the levels of access and
utilization for four key interventions that have the
potential to significantly reduce HIV infections among
People Who Inject Drugs (PWID) and their sexual and
injecting partners, and hence morbidity and mortality in low
and middle-income countries (LMIC). These interventions are
drawn from nine consensus interventions that comprise a
'comprehensive package' for PWID. The four
interventions are: Needle and Syringe Programs (NSP),
Medically Assisted Therapy (MAT), HIV Counseling and Testing
(HCT), and Antiretroviral Therapy (ART). The book summarizes
the results from several recent reviews of studies related
to the effectiveness of the four key interventions in
reducing risky behaviors in the context of transmitting or
acquiring HIV infection. Overall, the four key
interventions have strong effects on the risk of HIV
infection among PWID via different pathways, and this
determination is included in the documents proposing the
comprehensive package of interventions. In order to attain
the greatest effect from these interventions, structural
issues must be addressed, especially the removal of punitive
policies targeting PWID in many countries. The scientific
evidence presented here, the public health rationale, and
the human rights imperatives are all in accord: we can and
must do better for PWID. The available tools are
evidence-based, right affirming, and cost effective. What
are required now are political will and a global consensus
that this critical component of global HIV can no longer be
ignored and under-resourced. |
