Vol. 432 No. 3
178 Ms McManus asked the Minister for Health if he will provide a class background breakdown of the numbers of people who are HIV positive and who have full blown AIDS.
As I indicated in a reply to the Deputy on 3 June 1993, data in respect of HIV in Ireland is based on the number of tests which have been confirmed as positive by the Virus Reference Laboratory, UCD. Cases of full-blown AIDS are notified directly to my Department.
