TI HIV/AIDS in the classroom: ethical and legal issues surrounding the
public education of the HIV-infected child.

AB The AIDS crisis has paralyzed the minds of many rational individuals.
This paralysis of the mind unfortunately is the result of fear and
ignorance. The past 10 years of the AIDS crisis has resulted in massive
quantities of published reports regarding the biology, pathogenesis,
transmission, clinical manifestations, and treatment of the AIDS virus.
Yet there are those who still respond hysterically to the AIDS crisis.
One group on which the results of much fear and ignorance have fallen is
the school-aged child who is HIV infected. This article explores the
issues of risk (to other school children and the HIV-infected child),
the legal rights of the HIV-infected child to a public education, and
the role of the pediatric nurse practitioner in the disclosure of the
HIV-infected child's diagnosis.
