Descrizione: TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY ANYA TSUKANOVA A doctor attends to a patient on July 6, 2010 at an HIV/AIDS clinic in Kiev. With an HIV prevalence rate of 1.11 percent among Ukraine's adult population as of 2009, the former Soviet republic is one of the states in Europe worst hit by the epidemic. For years, the virus has been spread mainly in Ukraine by intravenous drug users but the trend has changed with startling speed. Since 2008, more Ukrainians have been contracting HIV through heterosexual sex than through drug abuse. In 2009, 43 percent of Ukrainians infected with HIV caught the virus through heterosexual sex and 35 percent by drug injection.
