An analysis of the current situation for the development of the HIV epidemic in the Tomsk oblast

Abstract

In 2013 Tomsk oblast of Russia experienced HIV outbreak with 5.9-fold increase of morbidity. Aim of this work was to analyse the specific molecular epidemiological situation with HIV dissemination in Tomsk oblast. Current HIV epidemic in TO is characterised by substitution of earlier predominant subtype A to СRF63_02A1, increase of genetic diversity of circulating viruses due to active recombination in HIV-1 population and appearance of 63_02A1/А HIV-1 URFs.
