In developed countries most HIV transmission is due to anal sex between men who have sex with men, where the odds of transmission per single act are more like 1 in 30. The transmission is much more heterosexual in Africa however, where most of this resistance is happening. [1] I'm kind of confused about the sexual practices that could cause this to happen, but I'm sure prostitution and rape (which increases transmission odds due to trauma) are involved.
