AIDS Treatment: HIV will no longer be an incurable disease, this injection will cure this deadly disease

Last year, 13 lakh new HIV cases were found at the global level, which is much less than the 20 lakh cases in 2010. UN AIDS has set a target of reducing the number of AIDS cases worldwide to less than 5 lakh by 2025.

HIV Injection: AIDS will no longer be an incurable disease. Yes, the cure for HIV has been found. An injection has been discovered, which can provide 100% safety from this deadly disease by taking it twice a year. This has been claimed in a study, which was conducted in South Africa and Uganda.

The name of this injection is 'Lencapavir'. After testing it on a large scale, it was found that this injection gives complete protection to girls from HIV. Let us know how big a discovery this is for the medical sector and by when will it reach other places...

HIV injection trial

In this trial, an attempt was made to know whether getting 'Lenacapavir' injection every 6 months provides better protection from HIV infection than other medicines. Trials of Lenacapavir and two other medicines have been conducted on 5 thousand people at 3 places in Uganda and 25 places in South Africa. South African scientist Linda Gail Baker, who conducted the clinical trial, gave this information.

How effective is the HIV injection

Lenacapavir (Len LA) goes into the HIV capsid and protects against this virus. The capsid is a protein shell that works to protect the genetic material of HIV and the enzymes necessary for replication. It is applied on the skin every 6 months. Let us tell you that HIV infection is highest among girls and women in East and Southern Africa.

In the trial of this injection, it was found that 2,134 women who got it did not get HIV infection, which shows that lenacapavir injection is 100 percent effective.

How many HIV patients in the world

Last year, 13 lakh new HIV infections were found at the global level, which is much less than the 20 lakh cases in 2010. UN AIDS has set a target of bringing down the number of AIDS cases worldwide to less than 5 lakh by 2025. Let us tell you that along with HIV testing, condoms, testing and treatment for sexual infections, access to contraceptive drugs for women of childbearing age should be given as well as pre-exposure prophylaxis - PEEP, but despite these measures, we have still not reached the stage where we can stop cases of new infection. Now scientists hope that with the arrival of this injection, the difficulties can be reduced considerably.
