 AB    A pilot survey of 2,206 collected sera were screened for HIV-Ab by ELISA
       in the age groups 10-60 years. The age group 20-29 years recorded the
       highest HIV-1 Ab with 9/239 (3.77%). The age group 10-19, 30-39 and
       40-49 recorded 3/192 (1.56%); 4/725 (0.55%) and 2/671 (0.3%),
       respectively. The age group > 50 years had 1/379 (0.26%). The relative
       rate was 3.29 between females and male with 95% confidence intervals of
       1.33-8.14, p = 0.0125 by Fisher's Exact test. Conditioned on marital
       status, there was no significant difference in HIV-1 Ab distribution for
       the various age groups using modified Chi-square, G2 = 18.08 at [symbol:
