Sex and death: old cliché, new reality

Gigi Santow

European Review, 2002, vol. 10, issue 4, 501-512

Abstract: Demographers have traditionally been preoccupied with human reproduction and mortality, and with the links, at different levels of aggregation, between the two. Today, when in some regions of the world sexual intercourse carries with it the risk not just of pregnancy but of fatal infection with the human immunodeficiency virus, that traditional preoccupation acquires a special urgency.
