HIV services: a view from the sharp end of policy decisions This is both the best and the worst time to be living with HIV. I should know – I was diagnosed with HIV in 1990.
More than 25 years on, clinical care is excellent and treatment not only works but results in an undetectable viral load (the level of HIV in the blood) that ensures we cannot pass on HIV, removing a huge burden from living with the virus. We are ageing with HIV – which is great – but, for many, ageing comes with complex health conditions compounded by layers of stigma. All at a time of public health disinvestment, third sector funding cuts and political uncertainty. The King's Fund
