08/07/2008: "Mexicans in US illegally at more risk of AIDS"

Mexican men living and working illegally in the United States are more likely to sell their bodies for sex, take drugs or frequent prostitutes than they would have been in their homeland, increasing their risk of AIDS infection, U.S. researchers reported on Wednesday.

And if they are deported, they can take the virus back home with them, the researchers told an international conference on AIDS in Mexico City.

The men in the study were three times more likely to have sex with a prostitute in California than they were before leaving Mexico, Lemp's research showed. They were five times more likely to have sex while using drugs or drinking and 13 times more likely to have sex with another man.
