South African HIV / AIDS patients worry about treatment

Guku Johannesburg centers gathered his antiretrovirals from a USAID Funded Clinic.

But the President Trump helped the cuts were reported this year, other patients of HIV positive HIV in South Africa suddenly faced a doubtful future.

It was lucky, the clinic, helping his symptoms to remove the medication before contacting him.

“I was a people who were able to ship medication. I usually pick up a three-month recipe. But before my clinic closed, I was worth nine months of medications.”

September will run out of antiretrovirals (ARV) and then plans to go to his local public hospitals.

Former sexual employee, who knew the 54-year-old was HIV positive after leaving the industry.

He got a breast cough ten years ago, and initially thought it was tuberculosis. He told the doctor who had a breast infection went to the doctor and he treated for that.

When the treatment failed, he went to a clinic to get a HIV test.

“By then, I already assumed I was HIV positive, and I said this to the nurse.”

He was right, and since he has been on Arvs. We don’t use his real name in his or her request.

He currently works as a project coordinator of a NGO project.

“We help pregnant sexual workers to ensure their children are HIV negative. We also do house visits, when mothers take on time to ensure medications and when they care about their babies.”

Many South African HIV-positive sexes focused on private clinics funded by the Current U.S. Government Health Agency, USAIDE, to achieve its prescriptions and treatments.

But most facilities Donald Trump closed most foreign support after the President of the United States before.

In our opinion, in our opinion, many sexual staff could be recommended if they cannot go to their Arvs to their arvs if they can’t go out of clinics.

“It’s a problem to go to public hospitals. It is a problem to serve in these facilities, reaching 4 or 5, and you can spend a full day waiting for the medication.

He recently added to his local hospital to register his details with some friends and build a relationship with employees.

“The nurse who went to us was very rough. He told us that there was nothing special about sexual staff.”

Many sex workers believes that it can be prioritized in his medication, “especially because hospital files are a lot of personal information, and is concerned that nurses in these local clinics are not always sensitive to addressing this type of information.”

In a released report on Thursday, the US responsible for HIV / AIDS is not terminated by the US, but says that many lenders sent Shockwaves around the world Shockwaves around the world, that “Phenomenal progress” are being reversed in risk of illness.

“New HIV infections fell by 40% in 2010. Since the year, about 4.4 million children have been protected from 2000. Since the year.” As Unaids says, if the world does not act, there could be more deaths of six million euros in 2029.

Unaids said, before financing cuts, the annual number of deaths associated with new HIV infections and AIDS because of more than 30 years.

All data published in the report was financed before the US and other donors this year. But as a result of these cuts it stands out how many progress could be lost.

Under-Saharan Africa had a decrease of 56% in the number of new infections. The region is still the epicenter of the epicender, half of all new infections last year were continent. But four African countries – Lesotho, Malawi, Rwanda and Zimbabwe – 2030. They had a decline in 90% of new years compared to 2010.

Another success story in Africa has been the performance of antiretroviral, which helps to eliminate the symptoms of HIV. Along with other medical advances in the field, they helped increase life in sub-Saharan Africa from the age of 62 to 62 years in 2024.

The turn started when George W Bush launched the ambitious program in 2003 to address HIV / AIDS, saying that he would serve the “strategic and moral interests” of the US.

AIDS relief (Pepfar) is known as the President’s Emergency Plan, invested more than $ 100 million (£ 74 million) in the global response of HIV / AIDS.

South Africa has about 7.7 million people living with HIV, the highest number of the world, According to UNAIDS.

About 5.9 million of them receive antiretroviral treatment, and as a result, 66% of the death of AIDS fell since 2010.

The South African government says Pepfar financing has contributed about 17% in his HIV / AIDS program. The money was used for various projects to facilitate treatment for patients who run mobile clinics.

Trump Administration cuts have worried that infection rates could be again spike.

“I think we are increasing the number of HIV infections, the number of cases of TV, the number of other infectious diseases,” the Deputy of the Vice-Rector of University of Johannesburg, BBC.

“And we start to see the retreat of the real success story. We were exceeding some of these things.”

Gukgu stated that treatment is a matter of life and death, especially for weak populations like sex workers.

“People don’t prioritize them on their arven. They fear that they will die if they don’t get into them.

Cutters have also been affected by the goal of finding HIV vaccination and AIDS cure.

“There is a long-term impact, which is not receiving new vaccines for HIV.” Prof Morris adds.

“We will not continue to exceed the viruses that are circulating. Even with new viruses that appear, we will not once have a surveillance infrastructure.”

South Africa HIV research has been one of the global leaders. Many medications that help prevent the virus, and people around the world were tested in South Africa.

This includes medications that stopping the negative of HIV in the preparation (pre-exposure prophecy), the negative virus.

This year, another preventive drug released by Lenacapavir, which has been taken twice a year and provides complete HIV protection, also tried in South Africa.

In a laboratory at the University Health Sciences campus, a small group of scientists continues to cultivate HIV vaccination.

They are part of the excellent consortium, a set of laboratories working in eight African countries to develop vaccination vaccination.

“We were developing the vaccine test to see what works, and then we would trial in humans,” Abdullah Ely, a joint professor at the University, BBC tells in his lab.

“The intention of testing in African research based on the study of African research, because this research is really benefited from our community and human.”

But US financing cuts challenged the work.

“When the stop command arrived, some of us were able to achieve additional financing, so we could continue our work. Months may probably be a year.”

The laboratory serves to carry out the clinical trials scheduled later this year.

“It’s a very high loss of South Africa and continent. It means that the potential research that comes out from Africa should be tested in Europe or the US,” says profiles.

In June, universities asked the government to cover the Government 4.6Bn RAND ($ 260 million; 190 million) to cover some subsidies lost in the US.

“We are asking for help in South Africa because HIV research, but it does not lead themselves. This has ramifications about internships and policies,” says Dr. Phethiwe Matutu, head of universities in South Africa.

South African Health Minister Aaron Metsoaledi reported that some alternative funding for research was secured.

Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Wellcome Trust had to immediately affect each Rand of 100 m, and the government would have 400 m rand in the next three years, he said.

This would bring 600 m to Rand below 4.6bn requested by researchers.

As for Gukgu, when he was expecting the elderly, he would find the cure for HIV / AIDS, but now it is more optimistic now.

“I care for an old nine-year-old. I want to live while I can, to keep her caring,” BBC said.

“This is not just a problem right now, we need to think about how it will affect women and young people in the next generation.”
