Finding Hiv-Infected Women - The Clinician's Role, Mary Guinan Jan 1992

Finding Hiv-Infected Women - The Clinician's Role, Mary Guinan

Public Health Faculty Publications

An estimated 100,000 women are currently infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the United States, and a great majority of them are unaware of their condition.

This report is a summary of findings from the Diagnostic Study. The Diagnostic Study had two broad objectives: to obtain information to guide development of the …
