title: [Development of actions for the prevention of HIV, hepatitis and sexually transmitted infections among immigrants consulting in the doctors of the world "Missions France"].
abstract: The mission France of Doctors of the World has for objective to facilitate the access to care and to rights in the common law system for vulnerable populations and to bring testimonies out. The objective of the project is to ensure daily actions of prevention: to bring people to screen for HIV and hepatitis as well as obtaining full access to treatment for populations consulting in the Reception centers for Care and Orientation (RCCO). The screening is proposed systematically to all new patients (90% of them are immigrants) after a medical consultation or a special prevention consultation. The prevalence of HIV, hepatitis B and C was respectively 15, 10.5, and 7 times higher than the national average among patients screened in 2007, The centers of Doctors of the World are privileged places to inform, prevent, offer screening, and bring healthcare to this population particularly exposed to risks.
