para sustentar cargos de prostitución. La práctica hace que los trabajadores sexuales y las mujeres transgénero tengan reticencia a llevar consigo preservativos por temor al arresto, provoca que practiquen el sexo sin protección y los expone al riesgo de contraer el VIH y otras enfermedades de transmisión sexual. El informe se publicó con vistas a la XIX Conferencia Internacional sobre el Sida, que se celebrará en Washington, DC a partir del 22 de julio de 2012. La respuesta estadounidense a la epidemia centrará la atención de los 20,000 delegados procedentes de todas partes del mundo. Las cuatro ciudades investigadas son algunas de las más afectadas en Estados Unidos, con más de 200,000 residentes con VIH. </div><div class="more"><a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/news/2012/07/19/ee-uu-pr-cticas-policiales-fomentan-epidemia-de-vih-entre-trabajadores-sexuales">Leer el comunicado de prensa</a></div><div class="more"><a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/reports/2012/08/20/trabajadores-sexuales-en-riesgo">Leer el informe </a><br> ISBN: 1-56432-930-5</div> </div> </div> <div id="content-blocks"> <div id="block-tic-report_download" class="block"> <h6 class="block-title">Obtenga el informe </h6> <div class="item-list"><ul><li class="first first"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/sites/default/files/reports/us0712spforUpload_0.pdf">Download the full report</a> <span class="meta">(PDF, 5.22 MB)</span></li> <li class="last last"><a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es"></a></li> </ul></div> </div> <div id="block-xslt_book-1" class="block"> <h6 class="block-title"></h6> <div class="item-list"><ul class="xslt-book"> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/1">Trabajadores sexuales en riesgo</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/2">Resumen</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/3">Metodología</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/4">Contexto</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/5">Conclusiones: Los preservativos como prueba de prostitución en cuatro ciudades de Estados Unidos</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/6">Obligaciones de derechos humanos</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/7">Recomendaciones</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/8">Agradecimientos</a> </li> <li> <a href="/web/20130113075738/http://www.hrw.org/es/node/109554/section/9">Apéndice A.
