The clinical symptoms and signs were assessed in 20 consecutive patients developing infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). All were male homosexuals and all presented with a glandular-fever-like illness. Changes in laboratory values were compared with findings in 40 HIV negative male homosexual controls. In the 10 patients for whom date of exposure to the virus could be established the incubation period was 11-28 days (median 14). One or two days after the sudden onset of fever patients developed sore throat, lymphadenopathy, rash, lethargy, coated tongue, tonsillar hypertrophy, dry cough, headache, myalgia, conjunctivitis, vomiting, night sweats, nausea, diarrhoea, and palatal enanthema. Twelve patients had painful, shallow ulcers in the mouth or on the genitals or anus or as manifested by oesophageal symptoms; these ulcers may have been the site of entry of the virus. During the first week after the onset of symptoms mild leucopenia, thrombocytopenia, and increased numbers of banded neutrophils were detected (p less than 0.0005). The mean duration of acute illness was 12.7 days (range 5-44). All patients remained healthy during a mean follow up period of 2.5 years. Heightened awareness of the typical clinical picture in patients developing primary HIV infection will alert the physician at an early stage and so aid prompt diagnosis and help contain the epidemic spread of AIDS.

We report on a tourist returning from Thailand, who presented with classical dengue fever. While in Thailand a 36-year-old Swiss female laboratory assistant suddenly developed fever, devastating headache, retro-ocular pain, myalgia and arthralgia, photophobia, nausea and diarrhea. In addition she suffered from epistaxis, urogenital and skin bleeding, and a morbilliform exanthema. After her return to Switzerland we noted lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly, enanthema and laboratory findings of mild hepatitis, thrombocytopenia and leukopenia. The diagnosis of dengue virus infection was verified serologically. Apart from a long lasting convalescent asthenia we observed restitutio ad integrum within days under symptomatic therapy. Epidemiological clinical and diagnostic aspects of dengue virus infection are discussed.

We report a hepatotoxic reaction in an HIV-negative medical professional on day 14 of postexpositional prophylaxis (PEP) with antiretroviral drugs. It was essential to decide whether the clinical symptoms nausea and fever without exanthema or enanthema were related to a HIV-seroconversion, a viral hepatitis or a hepatotoxic reaction due to the medication administered.
