"At present, the number of infections keeps rising in the nation, but at a slower rate, compared to previous years," Chen said. "However, sexual transmission is now the primary means of infection, especially among MSM (men having sex with men)."

"Infection among men who have sex with men is a real cause for concern," Sidib said. "Recent surveys in major cities in China show some dramatic increases in HIV rates among this population. In some southwestern urban areas, up to 20 percent of the MSM population is HIV-positive today."
