A small colletion of documentation related to alcohol's role in HIV/AIDS

Alcohol use and drunken behaviour is neither acknowledged nor well documented as a contributing factor to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. This situation is now gradually changing. An increasing amount of research is being conducted on HIV/AIDS and alcohol, and the connections between the two are coming gradually clearer also from a scientific perspective.
