In recent years, the HIV epidemic has been concentrated in the South, with more than 50% of the cases located there. The increasing number of new HIV cases in the South makes it the most affected area in the country. Starting with Texas, the Latino Commission on AIDS, through its research and innovation unit, has been assessing the socioeconomic and health needs of the region, particularly in Hispanic communities at risk of HIV or living with HIV. In this webinar, Daniel Castellanos will discuss the epidemiology of HIV in Texas.
In over 40 years of HIV epidemic science has progressed and discovered many medications to treat HIV, not yet a cure but the disease is now controllable and treatable. With time treatment has evolved from a “cocktail” of medication at the beginning to one injection every 6 months. Let’s learn what treatment options are currently available, when to start treatment, why it is important to adhere to the treatment, benefits of receiving treatment, as well as the difficulties our community confronts to get access to treatment.
This webinar is focused on learning the needs of the older people living with HIV, based on a research made by the Latino Commission on AIDS Research department in Texas. We will be able to learn about epidemiological trends, and the process of aging with HIV.
As every year AIDSVu present a webinar during the NLAAD campaign. This year we focused on the importance of HIV treatment. AIDSVu will present statistics and information on the HIV Care Cascade in the USA.
