Editorial: The Double Bind in Science Policy and the Protection of Women from HIV Infection.

Stein, Zena A.

American Journal of Public Health, v82 n11 p1471-72 Nov 1992

The double-bind message given women about preventing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection suggests that, if a partner will not use a condom, the woman should use a spermicide. The debate about the protection offered by spermicides is reviewed, and research on prevention effectiveness is urged. (SLD)
