Abstract
The Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) creates new responsibilities and difficulties for occupational therapists in Israel. Since the first reports on people with AIDS (PWA) in 1981, AIDS has become the most serious pandemic of this century. With 260 AIDS cases and 5,000–8,000 HIV infected in Israel, there is an urgent need for Israeli OTs to become more knowledgeable about this disease, be aware of their role in the care for PWA, and be unbiased toward the infected.
