      Dear Colleagues:

      I believe that this page represents an attempt to fill some gaps in textbooks of infectious diseases. However their form is preliminary; a work is in progress. I hope that you will contribute new information. You can send me a short review, a case report, a historical remark or your own observation. Preferred topics include HIV infection, CNS infections, rash diseases, intensive care, etc.

       I welcome your comments and suggestions. Thank you for your interest
