Description
HIV is one of the most important health threats of our time. It has killed millions of people in the United States and worldwide.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that over 1.1 million people are living with HIV/AIDS in the United States, and that one in six (nearly 16%) is unaware of his or her infection.
Therefore, all healthcare professionals need a basic understanding of the virus and the disease it causes: AIDS.
This course will teach you the basics about HIV and AIDS.

I enjoyed the layout of this course. The short lessons were easy to understand and informative.
This was an informative course, but it lacks updated information regarding statuses and new treatment. It should included information about HIV-positive individuals who maintain medical compliance and become "undetectable" and how that can greatly prevent the transmission of the disease.
