A transversal study within a border communitywas undertaken in 2001. From the community’s perspective, AIDS «comes fromabroad» and it is considered that different groups of mobile population are their diffusers.For the community residents, the presence of AIDS is explained by the interrelationshipamong members of the community and members of the different mobilegroups.
