Methods: This cross-sectional study used secondary data from 7,589 individuals from the Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) Clinic of RSUD Abdoel Wahab Sjahranie from June to December 2023. Data were collected from January to March 2024. The data were analysed using the logistic regression method. Results : It was shown that age, injection drug use, and types of sexual behavior were significantly associated to HIV status. The obtained binary logistic regression model is: HIV status = -4.729-0,032 (age) + 6,862 (injection drug use) + 6,173 (type of sexual behavior). This model could explain 53.8 percent of the variation in HIV status based on the independent variables, with injection drug use as the dominant variable. Injection drug use and risky sexual behavior were significant factors of HIV status. Conclusion : Injection drug users were at greater risk of HIV infection, with the highest odds ratio, followed by persons with risky sexual behavior.
