The Courier-Post recently published an article about World Aids Day and the improvement in treatments over the past 30-years.
“The options and changes in treatment for HIV-infected patients has vastly improved, from taking 12 to 24 pills three times a day to one pill a day,” said Pamela Gordon, program coordinator for Cooper’s Early Intervention Program.
Gorman said the disease isn’t labeled a crisis or life-threatening illness today, as it was in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Rather, it is considered a chronic illness that is more treatable than ever.
