[Awareness of AIDS in selected population groups from the province of Lublin].
The poll carried out among selected community groups in the Lublin Voivodship has shown that the problem of AIDS is looked upon multifariously depending on age. The paper is an attempt to compare opinions of the 18-25 age group (118 people) with those of the 40-60 age group (100 people). The poll, which consisted of 8 questions, has indicated that the knowledge of epidemiology and preventive measures in reference to AIDS is incomplete, the younger group revealing greater awareness of the problem. It has also been determined that the need for information on the HIV virus is high. It has been agreed that television and radio programmes constitute the best methods to convey information on AIDS; the press comes second followed by various publications and open lectures. The poll has also shown that the young tend to accept HIV carriers more than the 40-60 age group.
