HIV infection among the high risk groups of Upper Assam.

Serum samples of 9350 individuals belonging to different high risk groups were tested for HIV Infection by ELISA and western blot technique. 9 samples were found to be positive. Two of them belonged to indigenous people of Assam and the infection was transfusion/transplant associated and acquired outside the state during the course of medical treatment. Two were IDUs from Nagaland requiring treatment in a local hospital at Dibrugarh, Assam. Five were from floating population temporarily residing in Assam with history of heterosexual promiscuity. Overall seropositivity rate was 0.97/1000. It is felt that HIV infection in Upper Assam has not penetrated deeply and is at a manageable level and the spread of infection can be prevented through IEC programmes.
