    Preventionof onward transmission of AIDS through early initiation of Antiretroviral Therapy among People living with HIV/AIDS in Nigeria
    (Journal of Research and Contemporary Issues in Human Kinetics And Health Education, 2018) Fasoranti, A.J.; Adekanmbi, B.O.; Salami, B.E.
    Without antiretroviral therapy, most individuals with HIV will eventually develop progressive immunodeficiency marked by CD4 lymphocyte cell depletion and leading to AIDS-defining illnesses and premature death. Therefore, this paper reviewed the importance of early treatment initiation among people living with HIV/AIDS towards the prevention of onward transmission of the disease. The primary goal of Antiretroviral Therapy is to prevent HIV-associated morbidity and mortality. Deferring Antiretroviral Therapy until CD4 counts decline puts individuals with HIV at risk of both AIDS-defining and certain serious non-AIDS conditions. Therefore, early diagnosis of HIV should commence with immediate treatment. The paper therefore recommended that Government should ensure that voluntary HIV testing and counselling is put in place.
