There is a summary of the survey( which was published in the Lancet about may14
in the London Times May 18. There are two articles. One which is the alarmist
report of a big increase in St thomas' hospital of HIV in pregnant women -
- but in the second wider survey of samples from ten ante-natal clinics
in Yorkshire the prevalence was only one in 16,000. the conclusion is
that the geographical concentration "of the positive tests suggests a 
higher than average level of HIV in racial minority groups, but this is
only an inference"
