0.5 CEUs
Epidemiology and Spread of HIV
Module Description The Core Curriculum is developed out of the Academy's Fundamentals of HIV Medicine textbook and is an ideal way to learn the basics of HIV prevention, care and treatment or to gain a quick update on specific topics in HIV care. While
the number of newly diagnosed HIV cases is declining in many countries, people
with HIV are living longer largely due to improved access to antiretroviral
medications. Because of this, providers should know how to manage the range of
care needs for people with HIV and how to approach clinical situations that are
specific to people with HIV.
