Russia Sets New HIV Records”: General HIV Epidemic Observed in 27 Regions. "Rospotrabendzor experts call shocking data on the situation with the spread of the human immunodeficiency virus in Russia. The general stage of the HIV epidemic has already been observed in almost three dozen regions of Russia. There are more and more carriers of the virus in the country, although the number of newly identified cases has been decreasing in recent years. Today, HIV spreads not so much in narrow groups with unusual preferences or harmful addictions - but mainly among the simplest citizens with the most traditional behavior. Among Russian men aged 40 to 50 years, more than 3% are already affected by the immunodeficiency virus. For the first time in recent years, there is a record level of transmission of infections in medical institutions."
