[Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in Lubumbashi. Clinical and epidemiological observations].
26 AIDS cases (13 males and 13 females) have been noticed in the internal medicine service of the Lubumbashi University Clinics, town at the boundary of the south-east of Zaïre. The clinical data are conventional: only heterosexual transmission seems prevalent. The shortage of HIV diagnosis means restrain larger survey, but 5 to 7% of blood givers are AIDS carriers. The risk of AIDS dissemination is real, even in rural areas of some regions with permanent connections of larger urban centres.
