She said, “it was an opportunity for me to have a detailed interaction with drug addicted people of different parts of the country”.
United Nation (UN) Country Director for Aids (acquired immune deficiency syndrome), Marc Saba said that planning for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) AIDS and anti retroviral therapy (ART) at divisional level is underway.
Addressing a consultative meeting on Saturday to showcase an art adherence unit (AAU) providing rehabilitative anti retroviral therapy adherence support to human immunodeficiency virus positive, he said that the role of the Nai Zindgi Trust for treatment of AIDS and anti retroviral therapy patients is highly appreciable.
Marc Saba urged patients of HIV and drugs not to use drugs again and again. They must inform other people about the Nai Zindgi Trust for treatment, he added.
Nai Zindagi Trust, the lead organisation working for human immunodeficiency virus prevention and reduction among People who Inject drugs (PWID) organised a consultative meeting to showcase art adherence unit (AAU) providing rehabilitative anti retroviral therapy adherence support to human immunodeficiency virus positive patients and the people who inject drugs (PWID).
Relevant stakeholders representing public sector, private sector, civil society organisations and international partners and doctors attended the event.
They had a detailed interaction with the human immunodeficiency virus positive and the people who inject drugs (PWID) under treatment at AAU which helped them understand the issues surrounding human immunodeficiency virus and AIDS particularly among PWID and the problems faced by them in accessing anti retroviral therapy (ART).
Anti retroviral therapy is a life long treatment and intake of prescribed medicines by the patients on a daily basis is essential to maintain the immune system and minimize serious health consequences that are likely to be caused by human immunodeficiency virus and AIDS.
