Do all people with HIV positive end up AIDS and dies?

No, people with HIV positive do not all end up with AIDS and die. With proper medical care and treatment, known as antiretroviral therapy (ART), people with HIV can live long, healthy lives. ART reduces the amount of HIV in the body, allowing the immune system to recover and preventing the development of AIDS and its associated complications. Today, with effective treatment, many people with HIV can achieve viral suppression, meaning the amount of HIV in their blood is so low that it cannot be detected by standard tests and cannot be transmitted to others. Regular testing and adherence to ART can help individuals with HIV manage their condition and enjoy near-normal life expectancy.
