Yes, Sir, thank you. I have some questions about HIV/AIDS. Mainly, I would like to know the process of it. I know someone who was diagnosed in 1994 (I believe), he doesn t take care of himself, nor does he take meds. how long can he survive like this? and what can I expect to happen at the end?

Hello,

A person who was diagnosed as HIV in 1994 is still surviving without medicines is not true. A person cannot survive so long even with medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
