... Bond clearly belongs to the 20–34% of international travelers who engage in casual sex and of whom approximately half do not use a condom [11]. Somewhat in his defense, Bond has nearly all known risk factors associated with higher frequency of unprotected sex abroad (male, single, younger age, traveling without partner, alcohol and tobacco use etc.). That casual sex is not without risk appears supported by the high mortality rate (27.1%; 95% CI 16.4–40.3) among Bond's sexual partners, although sexually transmitted infections played no obvious role in any of their deaths.
