In 2007, sex became the main mode of HIV transmission for the first time and accounted for one-third of all HIV infections. Sexual transmission as share of all transmissions increased to 76 per cent in 2011 and 90.8 per cent in 2013. Throughout this time, injecting drug use (IDU) decreased from accounting for roughly one-third of all HIV infections in 2006 to less than 10 per cent in 2013.
