 Fewer than 400 people have telephoned  
 an advice line after the death of      
 surgeon Dr David Collings, who had     
 contracted AIDS.                       
                                        
 Only between 10 and 15 pet cent of the 
 calls were from the 254 patients       
 operated on bz Dr Collings between     
 July 1 and March 15.                   
                                        
 The surgeon worked at Exeter's Royal   
 Devon and Exetet hospital until 12 days
 before his death.                      
                                        
 Exetet Health Authority has repeatedly 
 stressed that there is no real risk to 
 patients operated on bz Dr Collings.
