At the Richland County Health
Clinic, a blood sample is sent to
DHEC to be checked, but it is
identified only with a number,
the race, what age and what
county the person is from. "We

Kettinger said South Carolina
has no laws that affect people
with AIDS. "Some states have
some laws where a person with
AIDS who refused to change his
sexual behavior could be
isolated," she said.
Such a law would not be
punitive for people who have
AIDS, she said. "It would only
be meant to give us some authority
for rare cases when someone
won't change his behavior," she
said.
hor sypnuis ana gonorrnea,
people who have been exposed
are informed they were infected,
and if they don't get treatment,
we can jail them for 21 days and
perform treatment," Horton
said.
"If someone has tuberculosis,
we can put them in isolation, but
not for AIDS," he said, adding
that although AIDS is not considered
a venereal disease, it is
one.

and advised to abstain from
sexual activity and not to have
children, Horton said.
"A lot of people listen, but a
lot don't. A lot say they're going
to die anyway, so why not have
sex," he said.
The county health clinic has
not received any reports of babies

People are more careful now,
Horton said. "Condoms are the
number one protection. We tell
people in the high risk groups not
to exchange body fluids," he
said.
The high risk groups are
homosexuals and bisexuals, intravenous
drug users, and people
who received blood transfusions
before 1985. he said.
' Kettinger said the more sexual
partners an AIDS victim has had,
the greater risk of spreading
infection.

"Use condoms," she said.
"Don't use IV drugs, and if 11
you're a woman at risk, you may I m
want to be tested before consider- [ j
ing getting pregnant." I
Kettinger said the blood supply
is well-protected now, and ail
donated blood is tested. "If so- l
meone gives blood, and it is \
positive, their name is put on a
deferred donor's list."
"You cannot get AIDS by
donating blood, nor can you get
AIDS through casual contact [I
with a person," she said.
Price said there is no evidence
that a person can be infected with |
the AIDS virus by kissing.
"The greatest risk in kissing is
that people may have a bleeding
ulcer or sore in their mouths," he '
said.
There have been 122 confirmed
cases of AIDS in the state as of >
March 31, Price said, adding new |
figures will be released this
month.
He said 66 of the cases are ;
homosexuals or bisexuals; 21 are
intravenous drug users; seven are
homosexuals or bisexual as well
as intravenous drug users; six are
heterosexual; and the remaining
22 are related to blood transfusions.
