#036- In honor of world AIDS day on 12/1, I am devoting today’s episode to HIV and aging. And, yes. HIV is an important topic when it comes to aging. An estimated 1.2 million people in the United States had HIV at the end of 2018.  


More than half of the adults living in the US with HIV are 50 years old and older.


With the use of antiretroviral medications, people who were diagnosed with HIV decades ago have been able to live well into older adulthood. 


1 out of 6 people who are newly diagnosed with HIV are 50 and older

In today's episode, I share:

• Must know facts specifically about older adults and HIV
• Statistics about HIV and aging
• Mental health concerns related to mental health, HIV, and aging
• What you can do to help.
