TL;DR: All vaccine regimens demonstrated favourable safety and tolerability and immunogenicity and protective efficacy against a series of six repetitive, heterologous, intrarectal challenges with a rhesus peripheral blood mononuclear cell-derived challenge stock of simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV-SF162P3).
Journal ArticleDOI
High HIV incidence and socio-behavioral risk patterns in fishing communities on the shores of Lake Victoria, Uganda.
Janet Seeley,Jessica Nakiyingi-Miiro,Anatoli Kamali,Juliet Mpendo,Gershim Asiki,Andrew Abaasa,Jan De Bont,Leslie Nielsen,Pontiano Kaleebu +8 more
TL;DR: These fishing communities experienced high HIV infection, which was mainly explained by high-risk behavior, and there is an urgent need to target HIV prevention and research efforts to this vulnerable and neglected group.
Journal ArticleDOI
HIV and syphilis prevalence and associated risk factors among fishing communities of Lake Victoria, Uganda.
Gershim Asiki,Juliet Mpendo,Andrew Abaasa,Collins Agaba,Annet Nanvubya,Leslie Nielsen,Janet Seeley,Pontiano Kaleebu,Heiner Grosskurth,Anatoli Kamali +9 more
TL;DR: This fishing population characterised by a very high HIV prevalence, high syphilis prevalence and frequently reported sexual risk behaviours, urgently needs improved STI services and targeted behavioural interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: HIV incidence in general fisherfolk population along L.Victoria, Uganda, is high and is mainly associated with young age and alcohol drinking, and HIV prevention and control strategies are urgently needed in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI
High HIV-1 prevalence, risk behaviours, and willingness to participate in HIV vaccine trials in fishing communities on Lake Victoria, Uganda.

TL;DR: A recent study among fisher‐folk communities (FFC) in Uganda showed high HIV prevalence and incidence, but those findings may not reflect population‐wide HIV rates in FFC since the study population was selected for high‐risk behaviour.
