BASIC - TREATMENT |

|
|
The kind of treatment an HIV positive person receives contributes to determining how long such
person can survive with the virus. With very good treatment and care an HIV
positive person stays longer. Though, there is presently no cure for HIV the
common type of treatment that are being administered to AIDS patients is the
antiretroviral, which basically involves
intake of some drug as prescribed. There are however, being many wasted
lives due to poor care and treatment of HIV patients, this area personal we
think needs to be checked. For example, the government of a country can reduce
such risk by construction a camp or rehabilitation center for HIV patients,
since not many of these patients could get antiretroviral treatments for
themselves
