The HIV resistant virus strain is at risk of spreading

US scientists have warned that variants of the HIV / AIDS-century virus can destroy all the world's medical achievements in drug treatment research and threaten access to treatment. in poor countries.

The results of the UCLA study showed that about 60% of resistant HIV / AIDS strains have appeared in the US, Europe and some developing countries like South Africa. .

Scientist Sally Blower, lead researcher, stressed that if these resistant strains of the virus spread globally, HIV / AIDS treatment programs are at risk of complete bankruptcy, threatening direct continued global public health. New therapies can only prevent variant viruses spreading in rich countries.

Scientists recommend that the continued use of existing drugs to treat HIV / AIDS strains that are resistant to them will only spread them.

Figures from the World Health Organization (WHO) show that the number of people infected with HIV / AIDS globally in 2008 reached 33.4 million.
