TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - The risk of suicide in people with haemophilia who are HIV infected JO - AIDS care A1 - Jones, P. SP - S157 EP - 61 VL - 7 IS - Suppl 2 N2 - The incidence of suicide in the HIV infected haemophilic population of the United Kingdom is low. Between 1985, when most patients were tested for HIV infection, and 1993 3 possibly HIV-related suicides were reported to Haemophilia Centre Directors. It is argued that haemophilia comprehensive care may contribute to reducing some of the factors associated with suicide risk, and thus be a reason for this low incidence. It is suggested that the pattern of health care delivery developed for the haemophilia community might serve as a template for those treating others with HIV infection.
