[Medical workers and AIDS: the attitude to the problem].
A questionnaire was spread among Kiev physicians with the purpose of evaluating their level of information concerning the AIDS problem. An interrelation of level of knowledge and character of relation to the HIV infection was found. It was established that the idea of air-drop ways of HIV transmission is widely spread among the medical personnel with a tendency to stigmatization of the infected, underestimation of the AIDS problem significance. The authors emphasize the requirement of state-backed program on system of professional training of medical personnel in the AIDS problem.
