SUMMARY:Treatment as Prevention: Can We Treat Our Way Out of the AIDS Epidemic?
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, December 1\, 2014 \n 12:30-1:30pm ET \nWith no cure or vaccine in sight\, HIV/AIDS remains a devastating epidemic\, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa where nearly 70% of new HIV infections occur. To curb HIV/AIDS\, researchers have proposed a strategy to use drug treatment to decrease new transmissions so much that the epidemic eventually dies out. The concept requires changes in standards of when anti-retroviral therapy begins and who receives it. Could “treatment as prevention” prove to be the strategy to finally end the AIDS epidemic? \nModerator: Carol Hills\, senior producer and reporter\, PRI’s The World \nExpert Participants \n\nMark Wainberg\, director\, McGill AIDS Centre\, McGill University\nMax Essex\, chairman\, Harvard School of Public Health AIDS Initiative\nKenneth Mayer\, medical research director and co-chair of The Fenway Institute\nShahin Lockman\, associate professor in the Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases\, Harvard School of Public Health\n\nWatch the Live Webcast Here on World AIDS Day \nE-mail questions for the expert participants any time before or during the live webcast to theforum@hsph.harvard.edu.
