Abstract
An AIDS counselling office of the Public Health Service has been available to the public of Frankfurt a.M. since September 1985. 6969 blood samples were examined for HIV antibodies between January 1988 and the end of December 1989. The prevalence of positive tests was 1.9% (n = 141). Until now most of the HIV-positive clients are homo- and bisexual persons. Security and partnership were the most frequent reasons stated by heterosexual clients at the AIDS-counselling office.
