other sexually transmitted infections may be passed on. In an ideal world women would be educated about these risks and have access to condoms. Sadly, that kind of education is unavailable in many parts of Africa”, said Rod Watson, deputy head of health promotion at HIV/Aids charity Terrence Higgins Trust.

“Vaginal washing is commonplace in Africa and we need to understand how all intravaginal practices affect HIV transmission. The behavioral practices and cultural beliefs that lead to vaginal washing need to be better understood before any work to include the results of this study into prevention programmes on the ground can occur”, concluded Robin Brady, Chief Executive of HIV charity.
