In order to carry out this transformation, long term strategies are needed, which go beyond the cycles of government, as well as the commitment between the different agents that have influence there.

People with HIV have altered levels of a specific RNA molecule related to both aging and inflammation. This molecule remains altered even with antiretroviral treatment, indicating that their immune system remains affected despite receiving antiretroviral treatment and controlling the infection. The authors of the study, published in the Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection, suggest that the origin of this alteration is chronic inflammation caused by the infection, regardless of the treatment received by patients. Having this marker can be helpful in monitoring the evolution of patients and the effectiveness of the drugs they take to restore the normal functioning of their immune system.
