One of the epidemiological descriptor of a fatal infectious disease is the time it takes from infection to death or the survival period. The present study has focused on trend in survival and death of Iranian nonhemophiliac HIV patients from 1988 to 2002 and has estimated the nonparametric distribution of the survival function of HIV patients with respect to different variables of interest, like mode of transmission, gender and age at the time of diagnosis.
