Benefits of U=U

Dennis Boyd | October 7, 2021

Maintaining an undetectable viral load leads to the best possible health outcomes for a person living with HIV. In addition to improving the health and wellbeing of a person living with HIV, achieving an undetectable viral load means that a person living with HIV can no longer transmit HIV to their partner(s) sexually. Achieving and maintaining an undetectable viral load serves as a very effective prevention method to help interrupt existing transmission chains. This means an undetectable viral load not only helps HIV-positive persons stay healthy and live a long, healthy life, but also effectively prevents HIV sexual transmission. #ItStartsWithU
