Dealing with an HIV diagnosis can be challenging. But it's still important to process your emotions and learn about HIV and the treatment options available—then prioritize treatment.
It's never too late to start treatment. And some can start treatment right away.
Staying on treatment is the best way to live a healthier life with HIV. And it's easier to do that when you're on a treatment that works for you. Talk to a healthcare provider about which HIV treatment may be right for you.
It's important to focus on yourself first. And that includes taking care of your overall health.

And it worked.
New infections went down. But we still have work to do.
So, let’s all do our part and keep fighting.
Because together we can all help stop the virus.
