Screening of HIV Infection was made mandatory for every unit of blood collected for transfusion in Delhi, India since 1989. Ten Zonal Blood Testing Centres have been identified which test all the blood collected for HIV by 29 blood blanks for the city. Reports from these testing centres have been analysed yearwise to find out the magnitude and trends of HIV infection in different groups of blood donors. Although initially there was no difference in HIV Sero-reactivity in different blood donors categories (between 1 & 2 per 1000 blood donors samples tested) but subsequently there is significant increase (5.24/1000 in 1992 & 7.48/1000 in 1993) in the HIV sero-reactivity in replacement donor category possibly because professional donors donate blood in the guise of being replacement donors. The fact which comes out clearly is that HIV infection is present in all sections of the population in Delhi and mandatory HIV Screening of all blood collected for transfusion is justified.
自1989年起，印度德里对每单位采集用于输血的血液进行HIV感染筛查成为强制规定。已确定了10个区域血液检测中心，这些中心对该市29个采血点采集的所有血液进行HIV检测。对这些检测中心的报告逐年进行分析，以了解不同献血者群体中HIV感染的程度和趋势。尽管最初不同献血者类别中的HIV血清反应性没有差异（每检测1000份献血者样本中有1至2例），但随后替代献血者类别中的HIV血清反应性显著增加（1992年为5.24/1000，1993年为7.48/1000），这可能是因为职业献血者以替代献血者的名义献血。很明显的事实是，德里的所有人群中都存在HIV感染，对所有采集用于输血的血液进行强制性HIV筛查是合理的。
