Just 1 in 4 Americans with HIV have infection in check with medication,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
ATLANTA - Only about 25 percent of Americans using the AIDS virus have the infection under control with medications, federal nutritionists said Tuesday.
Area of the reason is that about 20 percent of these have contracted HIV don't know it. People might have an infection for years without developing symptoms.
An infection was once a death sentence,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but medications that have been readily available for 15 years can change it into a manageable condition, allowing those infected to reside longer and healthier lives.
However, in its first study of the issue, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found merely a small percentage of individuals are being successfully treated.
"The big picture is we're able to perform a lot much better than we're doing today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Dr. Thomas Frieden,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the CDC's director.
From the nearly 1.2 million individuals with HIV,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no more than 40 percent are getting HIV-fighting medications regularly. Worse, only 28 percent have gotten the virus to lower levels in their blood.
That means roughly 850,000 Americans who don't have herpes controlled, Frieden said.
Success were lowest in blacks and women than in others, the CDC also found.
There are numerous reasons more people aren't doing better,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], health officials said. Some remained as early in their treatment, when the virus hadn't been beaten right down to low levels yet. Some dropped routine care because of money or any other obstacles. Some didn't stick with it for other,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more personal reasons. And, in a small area of cases, the medicine might not have worked.
The HIV virus can cause AIDS,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a disease that destroys the body's immune system and results in about 16,000 deaths annually. In the United States, the number of new infections every year has held steady in recent years, at about 50,000.
The CDC analysis took it's origin from several teams of data, including surveys and surveillance reports from 2010 and a study that looked specifically at the health care of people with HIV.
The good thing is that once HIV-infected people get connected to medical care, the drugs bring the virus under control nearly 80 percent of times, health officials said.
But there are still insufficient people being diagnosed, and there is a worrisome gap between those people who are diagnosed and those who get in - and turn into in - treatment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], some experts said.
"It's not good enough to get them tested," said Dr. Diane Havlir, who runs the AIDS program at San Francisco General Hospital.
Bay area has been unusually aggressive about closing that gap. Patients are routinely tested for HIV at emergency rooms, and everyone who's diagnosed with HIV is offered treatment. Elsewhere, medical treatment can be delayed until their immune system dips to some certain level.
On Tuesday, CDC also announced a $2.4-million campaign to encourage HIV testing. It's the government's first campaign aimed specifically at black gay and bisexual men,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who take into account nearly one fourth of new HIV infections in the usa..
