CDC Underscores Current Recommendation for Preventing HIV Transmission
An
article recently published by Switzerland’s Federal Commission for HIV/AIDS
states that HIV-positive individuals on effective antiretroviral therapy are
not at risk for transmitting HIV to their sexual partners under certain
circumstances. The Commission acknowledges that there are no scientific data
that the risk of transmission in these circumstances is zero. The Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) underscores its recommendation that
people living with HIV who are sexually active use condoms consistently and
correctly with all sex partners.
