MMWR released an article about the improvement of the quality of life in HIV patients. Here is a snipit "Improving survival of persons with HIV and reducing transmission involve a continuum of services that includes HIV testing, linkage to and retention in HIV medical care, and ongoing HIV prevention interventions, including appropriately timed antiretroviral therapy (ART). CDC used three surveill...ance datasets to estimate recent HIV testing and HIV prevalence among U.S. adults by state, and the percentages of HIV-infected adults receiving HIV care for whom ART was prescribed, who achieved viral suppression, and who received prevention counseling from health-care providers. This report summarizes the results of those efforts. Check out the full article at http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm60e1129a1.htm?s_cid=mm60e1129a1_e&source=govdelivery See More
