In the United States a patient has sued a doctor for failing to diagnose AIDS, resulting in a two-year delay before correct diagnosis and treatment. At least one similar case has been commenced in Australia and more are likely. The time has come when courts in this country are likely to find that failure to diagnose symptoms of HIV infection and AIDS will constitute negligence.
在美国，一名患者起诉一名医生未能诊断出艾滋病，导致在正确诊断和治疗前延误了两年。澳大利亚至少已开始了一起类似案件，而且可能会有更多。我国法院可能会认定，未能诊断出艾滋病毒感染和艾滋病症状将构成过失的时代已经到来。
