As a result, between 2008 to 2050 as a result of AIDS deaths will decrease from 8,700,000 to 3,900,000, more than half of the reduction.

Experts estimate that such an approach each year up to 3,400,000,000 U.S. dollars, after the initial investment will be reduced year by year. However, the U.S. University of North Carolina expert said Cohen, which will certainly be more than many countries in the capacity of medical facilities, but not without considering this approach.

To all HIV-positive people Issuance of drug resistance will also increase. In addition, the doctors do not know for 10 years serving the safety of AIDS drugs.

At present, only about 3,000,000 AIDS patients in the drug, nearly 700 million people waiting for treatment. Last year alone, 3,000,000 new people infected with AIDS. The World Health Organization estimates that worldwide there are about 33,000,000 people carrying the AIDS virus. (Wang)
