Résumé :
Harm-reduction programmes are remarkably successful in controlling HIV in injecting drug users worldwide, but more effort is needed to prevent even more HIV infections in this group.

Still, little is known about evidence-based educational intervention effects of harm-reduction programmes for injecting drug users. [Extract]
