Asymptomatic HIV Infection Prevention
Prevention of HIV infection relies primarily upon decreasing the risk of sexual transmission by safer sex behaviors, as well as avoiding contact with contaminated blood (ceasing injection drug use or not sharing needles or syringes, and proper screening of blood products).
Individuals at risk for HIV infection should undergo periodic testing to ensure early diagnosis of this infection, as there are numerous treatment options available.
