AB The information available from public laboratories in Navarra (Spain) on
tests for detecting anti-HIV antibodies enabled to find out the number
of HIV seropositive subjects from 1985 to June 1992, as well as their
demographic characteristics and risk habits. 1205 subjects were found to
be HIV seropositive, out of a population of 512,512 inhabitants which
means an accumulated incidence of a 2.35 cases per thousand inhabitants.
Higher rates were observed in young males (13.57 per thousand), and in
urban areas (3.7 per thousand). The most frequent risk habit among HIV
seropositive is the use drugs by intravenous injection (93.7%) followed
by sexual transmission (3.5%). This methodology provides the minimum
number of HIV seropositive cases in Navarra, since it does not include
those not diagnosed, on diagnosed in private centres in Navarra and/or
in other autonomous regions.
