Children or adults with AIDS may be seen first by family physicians, who must be aware of the epidemiology, signs and symptoms, and initial laboratory evaluation of these patients. Numerous complications are to be expected. The physician can provide reassurance that AIDS is not transmitted through casual contact, can offer valuable support to the AIDS patient and the family, and can serve as a source of accurate information.
