Modelling the expected distribution
of new HIV infections
by exposure group
Purpose
• To understand the sources of new HIV
infections and the importance of each
• To use this information for program
planning

2
Methods
The spreadsheet uses
• the current prevalence of HIV infection
• numbers of individuals with particular exposures, and
• the rates of these exposures
to calculate the expected incidence of HIV
infection over the coming year

Major modes of transmission of HIV in adults
• Sexual contact
– Commercial sex
– Casual sex
– Marital sex
– Men who have sex with men
• Injecting drug use
• Blood transfusions
• Medical injections
