Time for test and treat

How long will it take WHO to advise us that test and treat is the way to go. Forget CD4 thresholds. The early results of the START study are out.

There is today EVIDENCE of individual health benefit of starting antiretroviral treatment regardless of CD4 cell count.

Onwards to test and treat.
