| Front | What natural experiments are ongoing relating to the transmission rate hypothesis |
| Back | In Europe and US, safer sex is taking over —> should see virulence decreaseIn Africa, no change to sex practices —> should see virulence stay sameIn Asia, more promiscuity —> should see increase in virulence |
