HIV/AIDS in Mongolia: Case #22 PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 01 June 2006

The #22 official HIV positive case has been confirmed in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

A 23 year old woman, third year university student, who came from the countryside and entered the sex industry because of a lack of money and the fact that she didn’t know anyone in Ulaanbaatar. She spent almost three years primarily sleeping with Chinese men. In the short interview she stated that her parents weren’t sending any money from the countryside and she couldn’t find work.

She stated that if she had used condoms with the men she was sleeping with, they wouldn’t give her as much money as they didn’t like using protection. For one night she would receive 30,000-40,000 togrog, or USD$25-35. However two months ago she stopped working as a prostitute after her urine started to smell bad and contained small green items.
