["Occupational" infection caused by the human immunodeficiency virus in 6 members of a single family].
The risk groups for AIDS have been defined and include homosexuals, bisexuals, polytransfused patients, drug addicts, sexual partners of any of the above groups and sons of infected fathers. We have previously proposed that paid donors should be considered also as high risk individuals. We report here a family in which six of its eight members had HIV infection without other risk factor than being paid blood donors.
