What advice would you give someone newly diagnosed with HIV

🌈 Happy Pride Month 🌈

This June, we celebrate the diversity, strength, and vibrant spirit of LGBTQI+ communities around the world.

Women, especially young women and adolescent girls, continue to be disproportionately affected by HIV in many parts of the world due to a combination of biological, social, economic, and gender-related factors.

Gender-based violence is not only a human rights issue, it also increases the risk of HIV.

The simple answer is NO.
STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections) like HIV, gonorrhoea, chlamydia, syphilis, and others do not spread through toilet seats, public toilets, or bathroom surfaces.

CAN SOMEONE LIVE LONG WITHOUT HIV TREATMENT?

Without treatment, HIV slowly weakens the immune system over time. Some people may stay healthy for years, while others become sick more quickly depending on their body and overall health. However, untreated HIV can eventually lead to serious infections and complications. Modern ART helps people living with HIV live long, healthy lives by controlling the virus and protecting the immune system. Starting treatment early gives the best health outcomes and reduces the risk of transmission. This is why regular testing and prompt medical care are important. HIV is now a manageable condition when treated properly and consistently.
