On the street, but only in those working in indoor venues, the network developed more quickly among FSW in indoor venues. Considering the transference process of sampling methods in populations to which it is difficult to gain access, conducted by the Global AIDS Program, Centers of Disease Control, a pilot study in Brazil, conducted in the city of Santos, SP, Southeastern Brazil, used the RDS met
