@bot HIV and AIDS can affect anyone regardless of age, gender, race, or sexual orientation. However, globally, some populations are at higher risk for acquiring HIV infection, including men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, sex workers and their clients, and transgender people. Additionally, factors such as poverty, migration, and lack of access to healthcare and prevention services can increase the risk of HIV infection. It's important to note that HIV can be prevented through multiple measures, including the consistent and correct use of condoms or pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), practicing harm reduction techniques when using drugs, and regular HIV testing and care.
