title: [AIDS: towards a rationalization of its health care].
abstract: We review the current health care model for AIDS patients in local hospitals provided with few advanced technologies and a low level of research. We state arguments supporting the creation of Specialized Units for the treatment of these patients as the best way for the control, prevention and research of this new disease. We try to draw attention to a new problem which requires urgent solutions, in contrast with certain passive attitudes from the Authorities.
