Analysis of Swiss mortality statistics reveals that from 1980 to 1992 AIDS has become one of the leading causes of death among Swiss women and men aged 25 to 44 years. In 1992 77% (n = 414) of all AIDS-related death cases (n = 540) were in this age group. In the mortality statistics of men aged 25-44 years, AIDS (n = 307; death rate = 27.8/100,000) was found to be in third place after accidents and suicides. Among women aged 25-44 years, AIDS (n = 107; death rate = 9.9/100,000) was second after cancer. In spite of the inadequate epidemiological data position in Switzerland it may be suspected that in a few years AIDS will be the leading cause of death for both sexes in this age group in Switzerland.
对瑞士死亡率统计数据的分析显示,从1980年到1992年,艾滋病已成为瑞士25至44岁男女的主要死因之一。1992年,所有艾滋病相关死亡病例(n = 540)中的77%(n = 414)属于这一年龄组。在25 - 44岁男性的死亡率统计中,艾滋病(n = 307;死亡率 = 27.8/100,000)在事故和自杀之后位列第三。在25 - 44岁女性中,艾滋病(n = 107;死亡率 = 9.9/100,000)仅次于癌症位列第二。尽管瑞士的流行病学数据状况不足,但可以推测,再过几年艾滋病将成为瑞士这一年龄组男女的主要死因。
