Can HIV be treated?

HIV is treatable and it is important to visit a hospital after infection to complete relevant tests, such as HIV viral load and CD4 lymphocyte count. The next step in treatment is to determine the patient’s current status, whether he or she is immunocompromised, whether he or she is in the AIDS stage, and whether there are various secondary opportunistic infections. Although there is no cure for HIV worldwide, there are many antiviral drugs available for HIV. Therefore, antiviral drugs should be used as soon as possible after the diagnosis is made, excluding any contraindications. By taking antiviral drugs, the virus replication in the body of HIV patients can be suppressed and the immune system can be gradually restored to the level of a normal person. Thus, you can work, study and live like a normal person. As long as you keep regular review, you can treat AIDS as a chronic disease similar to hypertension and diabetes.
