International AIDS Society - "Since the beginning of the epidemic, the HIV response has been largely driven by communities, calling for access to life-saving treatments, advocating for the rights of people living with HIV and providing voluntary counselling and testing, HIV prevention, treatment, care, and support. Without community involvement, fewer HIV services would be available particularly for key populations, including men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, sex workers and transgender people.

/de/news/hiv-self-testing-services-for-female-sex-workers-malawi-and-zimbabwe
WHO Bulletin - "In sub-Saharan Africa, the proportion of HIV infection in the general female population that is attributable to sex work is estimated to be between 13.6 and 22.1%. In spite of the overall reduction in new HIV infections in the general population, the prevalence and incidence of HIV among female sex workers remain extremely high. At the same time as being disproportionately affected by HIV infection, female sex workers are highly marginalised and least likely to take up voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) services, as they have to contend with multiple barriers to accessing services.
