Incidence of new HIV infections among people who inject drugs in Australia is extremely low, results of a retrospective study published in the online edition of AIDS show. Investigators examined incidence among people who inject drugs who had repeat HIV tests between 1995 and 2012. The annual incidence rate remained low throughout the study period at just 0.11 per 100 person-years. The investigators attribute this “remarkable” prevention success to the early introduction of free and legal syringe and needle exchange programmes in Australia.
