The future of prenatal HIV testing*

Acta Paediatrica, 1997
The use of zidovudine for the prevention of mother‐to‐child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus, as well as continuing advances in our understanding of the determinants of that transmission, and of potential new avenues of intervention augur ever more efficient perinatal prevention strategies in the near future. In this paper the evolving role
