Different Ivorian population groups were comparatively tested for antibodies to HTLV-1, HIV-1, and HIV-2. They included 1,334 healthy individuals, 176 unselected medical patients in regional hospitals, 149 female prostitutes, and 65 males with a sexually transmitted disease (STD) collected in 1987 from four regions (east, north, west, and central). The HTLV-1 prevalence averaged 1 to 2.7% in the different regions, without significant increase in sexually overexposed groups. Furthermore, in Dabou Protestant Hospital, 60 km west of Abidjan, 414 blood donors, 109 asymptomatic HIV-positive individuals, and 181 AIDS clinical cases were also tested. While a significant increase in the prevalence of HTLV-1 antibodies was observed only in AIDS patients. HIV-1 and HIV-2 prevalence increased, as expected, from a low rate (2.4%) in the general population to an intermediate rate (13-15%) in blood donors and unselected hospitalized patients and to a high rate (35%) in prostitutes and STD male patients.
对科特迪瓦不同人群进行了针对人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒1型（HTLV-1）、人类免疫缺陷病毒1型（HIV-1）和人类免疫缺陷病毒2型（HIV-2）抗体的对比检测。这些人群包括1334名健康个体、地区医院的176名未经挑选的内科患者、149名女性性工作者以及1987年从四个地区（东部、北部、西部和中部）收集的65名患有性传播疾病（STD）的男性。不同地区的HTLV-1流行率平均为1%至2.7%，性接触过度人群中未出现显著增加。此外，在阿比让以西60公里处的达布新教医院，还对414名献血者、109名无症状HIV阳性个体和181名艾滋病临床病例进行了检测。仅在艾滋病患者中观察到HTLV-1抗体流行率显著增加。正如预期的那样，HIV-1和HIV-2的流行率从普通人群中的低水平（2.4%）上升到献血者和未经挑选的住院患者中的中等水平（13 - 15%），再到性工作者和患有性传播疾病的男性患者中的高水平（35%）。
