title: [The program of prevention and control of AIDS in Poland].
abstract: The programme accepted in Poland since November 1988 evolved in accordance with the WHO directives for stopping of infection spread is discussed. The programme includes multidirectional activities: training of staff, diagnostic facilities and research units, prevention of infection by sexual transmission, with blood, needles and syringes. The programme lays stress on the methods for protection of health service workers against infection. Much attention was given to health education for the high risk groups and for the population, especially adolescents. Health education is connected with prompting for the serological testing of anti-HIV antibodies which is principally voluntary. In accordance with the London Declaration and the WHO Resolution on prevention of discrimination of HIV-infected patients and AIDS patients the programme considers these aspects.
