HIV Care Continuum
The ultimate goal of HIV treatment is to achieve viral suppression, which means the amount of HIV in the body is very low or undetectable. This is important for people with HIV to stay healthy, have improved quality of life, and live longer. People living with HIV who maintain viral suppression have effectively no risk of passing HIV to others. Texas DSHS is the source of this data.
