AIDS is a HIV virus caused incurable infection disease, which had been found so far to have the more complex spread pathways and exert the greater threats to human health and life than any other epidemic. The dynamic evolution process of AIDS spread network via the intravenous drug taking trajectory was studied in this paper. First of all, the drug taking related factors of AIDS spread were classified and summarized systematically on the basis of the latest official statistical data and a large number of the empirical research results. And then, a drug taking based simulation model for the dynamic network of AIDS spread designed in light of the above summarized results. A series of simulation experiments revealed a few interesting evolution laws of AIDS spread. It provides a new perspective to explore the problem of AIDS spread, and may be a powerful auxiliary tool for developing the effective prevention and control strategies of AIDS spread.
