Abstract

Abstract HIV prevalence has been surveyed in a sample of young people from a rural small town, representing a group in which little surveillance has been undertaken. Only two of the 141 were found to test positive using the rapid HIV test. This age group represents a part of the population in which suitable education and motivation could slow the progression of the spread of HIV/AIDS. [Ethiop.J.Healh Dev. 2003;17(1):85-87]
