AIDS costs more "years of potential life" before age 65 than diabetes, TBC, or viral hepatitis]  Patterns of premature mortality in Switzerland, Austria, and the Federal Republic of Germany.
An attempt is made to estimate the present and future extent of AIDS mortality in Austria, the Federal Republic of Germany, and Switzerland.  The results indicate an increase in premature mortality attributable to AIDS in these countries in 1984.  The authors conclude that "it must be expected that during the 1990s AIDS will be one of the major causes of years of potential life lost among young adults, next to suicides and car accidents."
