HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) lowers your immune system's defences against common illnesses and infections. When your immune system has been severely impaired by HIV, you may develop AIDS, also known as acquired immune deficiency syndrome, a constellation of potentially fatal illnesses. Most HIV-positive individuals will not have any AIDS-related illnesses and will live relatively normal lives if they receive an early diagnosis and adequate therapy. HIV has no cure, however, AIDS is preventable. 

Today is set aside for communities to draw attention to the inequality in HIV services and resources they experience and demand the actions necessary to rectify them. We can address the disparities that fuel the AIDS pandemic by expanding access to high-quality services for HIV testing, prevention, and treatment, ensuring that everyone is well-cared for. Reforming laws, regulations, and practices can help people access diagnostic and therapeutic services while also addressing the stigma and exclusion suffered by persons living with HIV, particularly marginalised populations. 

To eradicate AIDS, we must identify and eliminate the injustice that breeds it. Let us equalise to ensure everyone's safety and health.

NORTH AMERICAN CYSTIC FIBROSIS CONFERENCE (NACFC) 2024

North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC) 2024 Day 2 Yet another exciting day at NACFC! I started with an interactive session on some research procedures, which I found helpful for my recruiting work and the data's impact on the population. I learned a lot from the CFTR genetics session, which aligns with one of my research group's projects, and the plenary session on The Journey to Understand and Advance Research in CFRD. I wrapped up the day by networking with colleagues at Johns Hopkins Cystic Fibrosis Center  #nacfc #nacfc2024 #cf #cysticfibrosis

NORTH AMERICAN CYSTIC FIBROSIS CONFERENCE (NACFC) 2024

North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC) 2024 Day 3 The past few days at The 38th Annual North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC) have been inspiring. I've gained a deeper understanding of CF, CF care, cutting-edge research, and, most importantly, the lived experiences of people living with cystic fibrosis and their families. I am leaving this session with more inspiration to serve people living with CF with my work. Thank you to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for this invaluable opportunity to learn, connect, and be more inspired. #nacfc #nacfc2024 #cf #cysticfibrosis
