STD/AIDS Program in the Field of Truck, Bus Drivers, Commercial Sex Worker, Brothels & Floating Gay Girls with Clinical Management Program Implementing Organization:

Bangladesh Manob Sampad Unnayan Sangstha (BMSUS)

Introduction/Relevance:

Bangladesh with its 127 million populations is still fortunate to be a low prevalent country for HIV/AIDS as revealed in three consecutive sentinel surveillances, although geographically the country is located in continuity with two very high prevalent nations. The first HIV positive case in this country was detected in 1989 and according to government sources, till date. A total of 157 HIV positive cases have been reported in which the male population predominates. From available information, so far 17 HIV infected persons developed AIDS of which 11 already died: In reality, HIV/AIDS epidemic in Bangladesh is not very well understood and the existing situation is only partly known. Although it is not known exactly how many people are infected, it is true that HIV is being detected among our population especially among vulnerable cohorts. The first National Sentinel Surveillance (1998-1999) revealed an overall HIV prevalence among the high-risk behavior practicing sample population to be 0.4% and in second survey (1999-2000) it was 0.2%. However, the sample size of the two surveys were different and new categories of high-risk population were included as sample in the second survey. The first survey revealed that the rate of scropositivity in brothel population was six per 1000 sex workers. Among injecting drug users (IDUs). The rate was 25 per 1000 population. The study also found that 13% of the strict based female sex workers had injected themselves with drugs, although none of those had been tested positive for HIV. No HIV was found in a sample of truckers. Some people coming to government STD clinics in some parts of the country also had HIV, about three per 1000 population. Among men who have sex with men (MSM). HIV sepopositivity was found at a rate of about 2 per 1000 people. Epidemiologically, the findings of the second sentinel survey did not have a significant difference but it did increase the reliability of the previous findings. Findings of the third surveillance (2000-2001) have just been made available. Surveillance finding nevertheless concluded that high level of behavioral risk factors for the acquisition of HIV infection are very much in existence at least among the sampled population. It is specifically clear from the surveillance that some groups of people who practice high-risk sexual behavior have a large number of sexual partners, averaging between 12 and 40 per year. Each sex workers, of course, has many more, around 1000 per year.

KABP survey findings:

When the sentinel surveillances showed the above figures, a number of studies and KABP surveys showed a very low knowledge on HIV/AIDS among different population groups. According to a study done in 1999, only 11.59% of surveyed population could mention AIDS as a sexually transmitted disease and 54% respondents have mentioned that having sex with HIV positive person can spread AIDS. Another KABP survey conducted on potential and returnee migrant workers revealed that 61% have heard of AIDS, only 4% of them have the full knowledge on the modes of transmission, 43% have partial knowledge and the rest 53% have cither misconception or no knowledge on the modes of transmission of HIV/AIDS.

STD prevalence:

In spite of the low prevalence of HIV in the country, many factors suggest that HIV may spread rapidly in the near future. For example, studies have shown high rates of STDs in various populations. In 1989, syphilis rates of 56% and 39% and 39% were found among floating and institutional SWs respectively. In 1997, 54% of 980 SWs gave a history of present or past symptomatic STDs. Recent reports indicate high levels of STDs amongst various other groups. As in many other Asian countries, condoms are not generally the preferred method of contraception. Furthermore, knowledge of condoms as a means to prevent STDs is very low.

Existing high-risk behavioral practice:

Moreover, sex outside marriage night is more widespread than traditionally acknowledged. Documented sexual practices include premarital, extramarital and male-to-male sex particularly among youth . For example, some studies indicated a high percentage of youths to have experience of sex before marriage and occurrences of induced abortions among women. Sixty percent of long distance truck drivers have sex with commercial sex workers about twice a month without any knowledge of HIV/AIDS. Extra-marital sex appears to exist even in rural societies and in particular where husbands are absent for long periods. Important studies of the sex industry identified large numbers (100,000) of generally non-literate SWs whose customers represent all segments of society. Female SWs have an average of 2-5 clients a day, making the number of clients about half a million men a day.

Migration issues:

Bangladesh has large member of international and national migrant laborers, transport workers and uniformed personnel. These individuals spend extensive periods away from their families that contribute to getting involved in new and different types of sexual relationships. Transponder mobility is high. Bangladesh also hosts large communities of expatriate refugees while itself having with refugee status in bordering countries.

Injecting drug users:

Available data from Client Monitoring System of Department of Narcotics Control and other research reports shows that prevalence of injecting drug use (IDUs) is on the rise. Most injecting drug users (IDUs) in Bangladesh share needles. In some areas the professional injectors use one needle for many IDUs. There are estimated 25,000 IDUs mainly in Dhaka. Khulna, and other towns including border areas. prevalence of STDs in quite high among drug users in general. A considerable proportion of IDUs are clients of sex workers and many IDUs are married, putting their family members at a higher risk of disease transmission. As mentioned earlier, the First National Surveillance for HIV and syphilis among the population practicing high-risk behavior showed highest seropositvity for HIV among IDUs that was 2.5”. Second surveillance has shown almost the similar trend.

Blood transfusion services:

The existing blood transfusion system is not yet without risk of HIV transmission and improvement in the existing facilities is underway. Problems include approximately 200,000 required units of blood is currently largely (70-75%) provided by professional blood donors of whom approximately 20” are positive for hepatitis B and/or syphilis. In addition to providing safe (serviced) blood the added risk of transmission caused by medical/surgical/dental procedures needs to be considered in the light of under-practiced universal safety precautions.

Contextual features:

Bangladesh has many special contextual features that are relevant to HIV infection. These include widespread poverty, unequal access to health services, often-subordinate status of women, and low literacy and education levels. All combine to restricting knowledge in relation to health and negotiating power in matters of sex. A multi-sectoral response, and policy level support and commitment for empowerment of vulnerable groups to address the issues like stigma and discrimination are yet to be properly visualized.

Research:

Research, especially operational research, in the field of HIV and AIDS is very limited in this country. Operational research is an essential component of effective implementation of any program particularly those related to preventive actions and other cross cutting issues.

Possibility of an epidemic:

The above mentioned factors indicate that the present HIV situation could evolve rapidly into an impending and escalating epidemic in this country with serious health and socioeconomic consequences. The epidemic of AIDS could bring, in future, needs for major adjustments for individuals and their families, the health system both in terms of human and financial resources, disintegration of family structures, problems relating to increased poverty, numbers of orphans and abandoned children, and shortage of manpower in agriculture, industry and other sectors can be apprehended.

As of middle of this year, levels of HIV were low and appeared to have been increased quite slowly over the past few years. At this moment it is not possible to product how much more it would increase and how rapid such an increase would lake place. Only continuous and repeated surveillance will be able to provide us the right kind of information. Form the information so far available, it may be assumed that Bangladesh is in the pre-epidemic stage for HIV (i.e. HIV prevalence did not exceed 1% among the sex workers and HIV has not disseminated to the general population. If an epidemic irrupts, it will irrupt first among the population of low-fee sex workers with the highest average turnover of customers. The sex workers with the highest partner turnover are low-ice brothel based SWs. HIV will be introduced into these high volume sex network primarily by male foreign transport workers, traders or seatiarers from nearby countries who regularly frequent towns and ports along the Bangladesh border, and/or by male Bangladeshi transport workers, traders or seafarers who have commercial sex encounters in high prevalence areas of nearby countries and regularly return to Bangladesh.

It may thus be said that even though the spread of HIV infection in this country has been slow, its continuous detection, even though at a low level, call for an immediate action. We cannot miss this window of opportunities for a preventive action and let the epidemic to scale up. Rather, there is very little scope for complacence and there are only very strong reasons for concern.

Prevention and intervention initiatives:

Fortunately, Bangladesh has been appreciably prompt for a timely response to prevent the epidemic. This is manifested, among others, by adopting a national policy, developing a long-term strategy, initiating multi-sectoral program implementation, increasing partnership with NGOs and other community organizations developing regular surveillance system, prioritizing targeted intervention, ensuring participation of PLWJIA in preventive action, initiating safe blood transfusion efforts, attracting donor support and resource mobilization, and making some major breakthrough in the field of information dissemination.

Overview of the Project:

How will the project address the problems?

The proposed project will address specific segments of people living in Dinajpur. SSKS has some information on these particular population. Yet a quick assessment survey will be conducted to identify the socio-economic and health status and level of awareness on SRI 1 of the men.

Sustainability:

To project will create awareness on HIV/AIDS among 10,000 families. It will also bring about behavioral change in their sex practice and develop improved health seeking habit in them. The project hopes that the positive behavioral changes will be retained in these populations and the programmatic sustainability will be achieved. They will continue to receive these benefits even after expiry of the project as the project expects sustainable behavioral change.

Justification of the Project:

The project is justified in terms of the following context:

· Transport workers engaged in carrying goods in different places of the country. They often engage in unsafe exes with floating & commercial sex workers. They have a little or no knowledge on safe sexual behavior which made them vulnerable to HIV/AIDS infection. Occasionally the transport workers have to spend their days & nights in bordering areas and get contact with sex workers of out side the border.

· Floating sex businesses are on rise in the area due to some social, economical & natural causes. The floating sex workers sell sexes in terminals, ports, railway stations and elsewhere and are vulnerable to HIV/AIDS. The lack safe sex knowledge and health related information.

· Preventive measures against HIV/AIDS is not sufficient enough in comparison to the severity of the problem. The vulnerable groups have less access to the existing facilities & resources also. This promotion of preventive measures calls for urgent needs in the area.

· Most of the injecting drug users in the area are in the age group of 25-40 years. Nearly half of them are married. According to the behavioral data available most of the drug users have been injecting for more than 4 years. Most injectors have about 20 shots a week, needle sharing is quite common. Clearing practices are not safe. Most of them are sexually active. Increasingly they have been vulnerable to STD/HIV AIDS infection and needs preventive intervention.

Project Monitoring:

The activity monitoring system will have several purposes. The general purpose of the system will be to collect information about what is happening in the field and to interpret is so that timely decision can be made about the management of the program and timely corrective actions taken when needed based on the accurate field data. Monitoring information will include.

· Project information

· Information about individual performance

· Information about resources usage

· Quality control

· Feedback on effective information campaign

· General Information

A special process will also be setup for monitoring & feeding back to the head office the experiences in working documentation of experiences from field, bottlenecks encountered, constraints, problems & success will feedback. So that problems can be solve and successes can be shared.

Evaluation:

Both internal & external evaluation will be conducted. Project staff will carry out internal evaluation. External evaluation will be conducted after the end of the project. Donor & government representative will be most welcome in the external evaluation team.
