|Objectives.
To assess participants’ knowledge about HIV/AIDS and to identify the factors associated with HIV/AIDS in Sudan.
Methods.
Observational cross-sectional study carried out at Omdurman National Voluntary Counseling and Testing Centre, Sudan covered 870 participants.
Sociodemographic data as well as information related to sexual behavior were collected.
Results.
Most of the respondents were knowledgeable about the true transmission modes for AIDS virus.
Very few respondents knew someone infected with AIDS (4.5%), died of AIDS (8.1%), accepted to live with someone infected with AIDS (4.7%) or to work with someone infected with AIDS (2.1%).
Regarding sexual behavior, 96.5% had reported their first sexual experience between 20 and 30 years, with 85.7% reporting one or two partners, and only 1.8% reported using condom.
Multivariate logistic regression showed that circumcision, religion, marital status, age at first sex, number of sexual partners, education level, and misconception of knowledge are the main risk factors associated with HIV/AIDS.
Conclusion.
Our results showed that a number of diversity risk factors were associated with HIV/AIDS.
It is unlikely that a holistic approach will be found to immediately change sexual-risk-relating behavior.
Interventions including sustained educational programs, promotion of condom, and encouragement of voluntary testing and active involvement of the country’s political and religious leaders will be needed to alleviate this problem.
