Serum samples from a total of 1505 (826 males and 679 females) individuals belonging to various categories of Delhi based high-risk groups, such as those attending clinics which treat sexually transmitted diseases (n=700), prostitutes (n=348), jail inmates (n=325), drug addicts (n=26), blood donors (n=11), those clinically suspected AIDS cases (n=89), and those who underwent coronary bypass surgery abroad during the past 3-4 years (n=6) were screened for the presence of antibodies to HTLV-III/LAV/HIV virus. The commercial Wellcozyme AIDS ELISA kit was used and none of the serum samples tested positive for the HTLV-III virus.
