This study aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors of HIV infection among people with disabilities (PWDs) in Burkina Faso. We carried out a cross-sectional study on level 3 and/or 4 disabled people. Identification of PWDs aged 15–69 years was done in households using the Washington Group (WG) Short questionnaire, following by HIV behavioural survey and HIV testing. Multi-level binary logistics Bayesian analysis was done to identify factor associated with HIV. In total, 973 PWDs were included in this study. HIV prevalence was 4.6% (3.3–6.1%). Independent factors associated with HIV infection were aged 35–44 years old (AOR: 8.93; 95% CrI: 3.57–18.89), had visual or hearing impairments (AOR: 6.38; 95%CrI: 1.95–15.44), no income (AOR:6.11; 95% CrI: 2.49–12.48), and had casual sex partners (AOR: 6.28; 95% CrI: 3.27–11.13). HIV prevalence is high compared to the general population. These data suggest a need for comprehensive and specific HIV prevention among people with disabilities, including awareness for safer sexual behaviours.
