ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitudes and beliefs of nurse-educators about AIDS. A convenient sample of 50 staff members in the High Institute of Nursing, Cairo and Ain-Shams Universities was included. Sample subjects were asked to fill out a 25-item self-report questionnaire. 82% of the subjects indicated that AIDS is caused by a virus. 70% believed that AIDS can be cured if treated early. Ironically, the same percentage [70%] believed that there is no cure for AIDS. All subjects indicated that AIDS is a life-threatening disease
