 AB    This discussion of the pathogenesis of infant human immunodeficiency
       virus (HIV) type 1 infection emphasizes features unique to pediatric
       disease and provides general insights into HIV illness in all
       populations. Therapies designed to interrupt transmission of HIV can be
       most efficiently addressed through studies of maternal-infant
       transmission. The rapid progression of disease in children constantly
       emphasizes the urgent need for continued progress in treatment of HIV
       infection and presents a unique opportunity optimally to assess effects
       of early intervention.
