| description | In order to evaluate the prevalence of infection with the human immunodeficiency virus in Lebanon, serologic studies were performed in a group of 1406 individuals, of whom 397 belonged to high risk groups. There were 7 seropositive individuals in the high risk population. One additional patient who was known to have the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome was also positive.
