More than 40 years have passed since the publication of the first scientific report on pneumocystis pneumonia, which later became known as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) , the last stage of HIV infection.
The diagnosis of HIV and AIDS has a different meaning now than it did two decades ago. It has gone from people taking multiple drugs with many side effects to one tablet a day, a drug combination that is well tolerated and completely suppresses the virus.
But as far as HIV is concerned, the statement of Dr. Stacey Rizza of the world-renowned Mayo Clinic remains valid: “We know that if every person on the planet with HIV were diagnosed, linked to care, and effective antiretroviral therapy, the HIV virus would be eliminated from the human race within one generation. We know we can achieve it with the given measures."
