TL;DR: In the Rakai population, a substantial proportion of HIV-1 acquisition appears to occur independently of treatable STD cofactors, and in pregnant women, the follow-up prevalences of trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis, gonorrhoea, and chlamydia infection were significantly lower in the intervention group than in the control group.

TL;DR: The increased frequency of HIV-1 associated with abnormal flora among younger women, for whom HIV- 1 acquisition is likely to be recent, but not among older women, suggests that loss of lactobacilli or presence of bacterial vaginosis may increase susceptibility to HIV-2 acquisition.
