AIDS among Children--United States, 1996.
Journal of School Health, v67 n5 p175-77 May 1997
Summarizes the epidemiology of AIDS in children in the United States reported cumulatively from 1982 through September 1996, presenting rates for 1995, and discussing HIV surveillance and reporting for children. The data show that the incidence of perinatally acquired AIDS has declined, a trend that probably reflects the effect of perinatal ZDV therapy. (SM)
