The Ongoing Quest for an HIV Cure: Beyond Treatment and Prevention

Over the past 30 years, significant progress has been made in HIV treatment and prevention, yet challenges remain in ensuring global access. Though medications manage and prevent HIV, the quest for a scalable cure persists. New strategies, like mRNA research, aim to uncover hidden HIV, targeting the virus for eradication.

Over the last three decades, there have been remarkable advancements in HIV treatment and prevention, turning it into a manageable infection.

However, global access to these treatments remains a challenge, particularly in low-income countries where infrastructure is fragile. An affordable and scalable HIV cure is still a priority.

Research continues, including promising developments like mRNA technology, to reveal hidden HIV and target it for eradication, though safety and efficacy remain under investigation.
