Abstract
This descriptive study was designed to analyze risky behavior that makes people vulnerable to HIV infection in Phan district. Among the sample of 330 people, 48.19 percent were unaware of HIV infection, and 76.67 percent were practicing unsafe sex. Of 222 samples who were tested for anti-HIV antibodies, 11 of them were HIV-positive, producing an HIV prevalence rate of 4.95 percent in Phan district, whereas the prevalence rate for the country as a whole is 1.4 percent. It seems that there is a high possibility of an HIV outbreak in the near future in view of the present situation. The basic problems are the same as encountered in the previous era, e.g. a lack of knowledge, values, and sense of social responsibility. These are universal concerns, not just those of HIV-infected persons. Sustained collaboration is truly needed in order to strictly control the spread of HIV.
