HIV antibody-tests at the AMC. A. Numbers of individuals tested for HIV-infection using serology at the AMC (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) from 1983-2012. The introduction of antiretroviral treatment (AZT/zidovudine and cART) is indicated by arrows. Between 1984 and 1992/1993, patient data were mainly recorded in written documents and not always filed later in databases. Therefore, the number of tests in those years is probably an underestimation as not all data could be retrieved. B. Numbers of HIV positive patients tested in the AMC in Amsterdam from 1983-2012 according to the most likely route of HIV transmission.
