aids

The veterans administration studied the effect of AZT on AIDS symptoms for 338 HIV-positive military veterans who were just beginning to express AIDS. AZT treatment was withheld on a random component until helper T cells showed even greater depletion while the other group received the drug immediately. The subjects were also classified by race.
