Demography of HIV Infections among Civilian Applicants for Military Service in Four Counties in New York City

Abstract

In October 1985 the US Department of Defense instituted a program for screening all civilian applicants for military service for evidence of infection with HIV. Data for the first six months of the program for the entire United States and its territories are summarized elsewhere. Of the 14 counties with the highest seroprevalence rates in the continental United States, four were contiguous counties in the New York area (New York, Kings, Queens, and Bronx). This report is a preliminary summary of current data on demographic factors associated with HIV infection in these four counties. Reprints.
