| HIVInfo.us |
| An HIV Information & Educational Resource Site |
|
This site was developed to
provide persons with
HIV & AIDS, as well as their friends and family, an easy-to-access and user-friendly site with clear,
accurate, and up-to-date
information about HIV care.
Information is power. Persons with HIV respond to therapy much more vigorously if they are well educated about the disease and its treatments. |
| Although certain links may not yet work, there is a growing library of treatment and drug information available below. If you would like to print out the information, most pages have a Portable Document Format (PDF) link at the bottom which is easy to download and print using the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software. Links in this site are usually in purple color. |
