Abstract
The HIV-status of 3999 fatalities (aged 1-60 years) examined at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Hamburg from 1989-1992 was tested. Former predictions of an enormous increase of HIV-infections, especially in the risk group of IVDA (intravenous drug addicts), did not come true. HIV-screening of fatalities is an instructive additional method of gaining information about the epidemiological development of HIV-infections.Entities:
