  • Early HIV Treatment Only Temporarily Prevents Immune System Dysregulation
    Early HIV Treatment Only Temporarily Prevents Immune System Dysregulation Despite effective HIV medication, the immune systems of people with HIV remain dysregulated in the long term. Researchers of the Amsterdam institute for Immunology and Infectious Diseases examined whether this disruption could be prevented by starting HIV treatment immediately after infection, within just a few days. They found that the immune system functioned similarly to that of people without HIV for about six months, but over time it became disturbed again.
