RESUMO
This paper presents the main epidemiological characteristics of AIDS cases observed among adult women in Rio de Janeiro Municipality (Rio) during 1980-89. Higher incidence rates as compared to Brazilian and Canadian women, rising participation of either sexual transmission and EV drug addiction and an increasing involvement of young women were also observed. The disease does not present a random spatial distribution in Rio, and case clusters in definite high risks areas were shown. Tuberculosis was found to be the second most frequent opportunistic infection detected among cases. Finally, some of the main trends and questions related to AIDS control among women in the studied area are discussed.
