 AB    The paper presents results of screening tests involving different groups
       of the population in the Ukraine, for antibodies to HIV, findings from
       epidemiologic investigation into cases with HIV-infection, with a view
       to outlining epidemiologic situation and assessing effectiveness of
       antiepidemic measures. HIV-transmission through sexual contacts is the
       commonest way of HIV-transportation in the Ukraine (66.1% of all cases
       of infection). An attempt is made of giving a short-term prognosis of
       epidemic situation in the Ukraine over a period of up to 1995. A
       conclusion is reached on the necessity of strengthening preventive
       measures with the view of influencing the unsafe forms of sexual
       behaviour.
