In recent years there has been a dramatic increase in the number of HIV/AIDS patients in Louisiana. Despite this increase, there has been little investigation of physician perceptions of (1) the adequacy of treatment or (2) attitudes toward general HIV related issues. A study of LSMS primary care members (n = 470) indicated that most had not treated a HIV-infected or AIDS patient although the vast majority would readily do so. Reluctance was related to concern over scientific knowledge rather than any bias against such patients. Among physicians treating such patients, there was strong concern over availability of adequate hospitalization and home health care.
近年来，路易斯安那州的艾滋病毒/艾滋病患者数量急剧增加。尽管数量有所上升，但对于医生对（1）治疗的充分性或（2）对一般艾滋病毒相关问题的态度的看法，几乎没有进行过调查。一项对路易斯安那州综合社会调查初级保健成员（n = 470）的研究表明，大多数人没有治疗过艾滋病毒感染或艾滋病患者，尽管绝大多数人会愿意这样做。不愿治疗与对科学知识的担忧有关，而不是对这类患者有任何偏见。在治疗这类患者的医生中，对能否获得足够的住院治疗和家庭医疗保健存在强烈担忧。
