TIRADO ACERO, Misael. Sex work from a human rights perspective: implications of HIV/AIDS and sex transmitted infections. Civilizar [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.27, pp.97-110. ISSN 1657-8953.

In sex work, constant risks such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are assumed. This work is a profession discriminated against because of its sexual content and described from various scientific and legal discourses, which have instituted a distortion of the contingencies that are run there, legitimizing the stigmatization of those engaged in this work. Therefore, it requires comprehensive policies to prevent, treat, care for and support the problem of STIs and HIV, taking a holistic view on the prevailing human rights as a principle.

Palavras-chave : Human rights; sex work; stigmatization; discrimination; sexually transmitted infections; human immunodeficiency virus.
