Treatment 2.0: Is This the Future of Treatment?

The latest studies show that a reduction in new HIV infections of up to a third could be achieved globally if there is a radical overhaul of the way that the world provides antiretroviral therapy and if global leaders meet their commitments of ensuring that all people in need of treatment are on it.

It's called treatment as prevention and it is one of the five pillars of the new Treatment 2.0 platform. In an effort to maximize the value of antiretroviral therapy, a radically simplified approach is needed. This includes the development of better combination treatment regimens, cheaper and simplified diagnostic tools, and a low-cost community-led approach to delivery.
