The use of condoms as evidence against sex workers fuels unsafe sex (video)

A 112-page report, “Sex Workers at Risk: Condoms as Evidence of Prostitution in Four US Cities,” was released prior to the 19th International AIDS Conference. The report's intention is to convince lawmakers to ban the use of condoms as evidence against sex workers. Supports of this position claim that providing sex workers with condoms is no different than the common practice in metropolitan areas of giving clean needles to drug users to reduce the spread of HIV and hepatitis C.
A summary of the full report is available at hrw.org
