Advances in HIV treatment have significantly narrowed the gap in life expectancy between people living with HIV and the general population. This is especially true for those who start treatment early and maintain high CD4 counts. A recent 2023 study showed that people with higher CD4 cell counts who receive antiretroviral treatment have a life expectancy only a few years shorter than the general population. Key influencing factors include age at treatment initiation, CD4 count, viral load, and timing of treatment initiation.

With effective treatment, people with HIV can expect a life expectancy similar to that of those without the virus. Early diagnosis and treatment, particularly antiretroviral therapy (ART), are crucial to achieving a near-normal life expectancy.

Con un tratamiento eficaz, las personas con VIH pueden esperar una esperanza de vida similar a la de quienes no lo tienen. El diagn贸stico y el tratamiento tempranos, en particular la terapia antirretroviral (TAR), son cruciales para alcanzar una esperanza de vida casi normal.
