Risk-taking behavior was investigated in 140 intravenous drug users to identify possible factors accounting for the low HIV seroprevalence rate in Greek intravenous drug users (IVDUs). High-risk drug using and sexual practices were reported by the majority. Awareness of the risk of HIV infection was low. One-third claimed to have changed risk behaviors in both drug use and sexual practices after the appearance of AIDS. Several drug use, mental health, criminal behavior, and sociodemographic factors were correlated with high risk behavior and reported change. Low HIV seroprevalence appears to be due to delayed invasion of the virus and not to the behavior of IVDUs.
