Baby Possibly Cured of HIV

Baby Possibly Cured of HIV

The hot news of the day comes from Mississippi where a baby may have been cured of HIV. The baby was born two years ago and aggressively treated with antiretroviral drugs. Researchers are still uncertain if this is permanent but it does mark yet another milestone in the fight of HIV/AIDS.

We are encouraged by the findings and it further goes to support what we have been doing to educate our community. The faster the diagnosis and treatment the better for the patient. You can watch the news post below where they speak about the findings in this case.

If you don’t know your HIV status, we encourage you to get tested today.
