How close are Doctors to curing HIV?
Not close at all. But there are good medicines available that can make your life longer and help keep you healthy if you have HIV. They work by causing the virus to take a longer time to grow. The best way to protect yourself from getting HIV is to wear a condom every time you have sex, never share needles for any use and get tested for STDs and HIV so that, if you did get something, you could find out and start medicine as soon as possible. HIV is happening a lot among teenagers and it is not only homosexuals or men, but heterosexuals and women too.
