Retroviruses Conference Notes

* Internet access: The final program and abstracts of the Third Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections should be available on the World Wide Web after January 28 (at http://www.idsociety.org).

* Press access: Press access and registration have been very difficult. AIDS TREATMENT NEWS was initially not invited and not told of this, although we had signed up twice in December for the press application packet.. Persons without an inside phone number have had difficult learning the status of their application; they may show up and be unable to get in, as paid registration is now full. And current press rules forbid most photography, and all literature distribution.

* AIDS TREATMENT NEWS schedule: Our next issue would normally be published on February 2, but will appear one week later, as we will be covering the conference, which ends February 1.
