The efficacy of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and the success of global treatment programmes has meant that, provided individuals have access to care, HIV infection is no longer a life-limiting infection. However, with this success comes unexpected consequences: a growing population of older people with HIV (normally defined as those aged 50 years or older). This population is increasing because young people with HIV are surviving and ageing, and an increasing number of older people are acquiring HIV.
The Lancet Healthy Longevity (Wed,) studied this question.
