Abstrakt		The AIDS and HIV epidemic in Slovenia is still at its early stage. By March 1, 1995 the cumulative total of 39 AIDS cases were reported in Slovenia (19.5 per million population). The annual AIDS incidence rate in the period 1986 to 1994 varied from 0.5 to 3.5 per million population. Most of the male patients (36) acquired infection by sexual contact with men (56 pct.), followed by heterosexual transmission in 7 (18 pct.) and haemophiliacs in 4 (10 pct.). 3 patients belong to category other (unknown) and 2 patients to intravenous drug users. In 54 persons with HIV infection (non AIDS) the transmission categories are very similar to that of AIDS. Data on reported cases of AIDS and HIV infections provide an important information on development of epidemic but the reliable estimation of distribution and spread of HIV infection in different population groups according to demographic and behavioural characteristics is not available.
