HIV/AIDS care and treatment

HIV/AIDS care involves managing the virus with antiretroviral therapy (ART), which suppresses the virus, helping the immune system stay strong. Regular medical check-ups monitor how well treatment works and detect any complications early. People with HIV should also adopt healthy habits, like balanced nutrition, avoiding infections, and adhering to medication schedules. While HIV is not curable, proper treatment allows individuals to lead healthy lives and reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to others. Ongoing support and education are essential for maintaining health and preventing complications associated with HIV/AIDS.
