There has been considerable progress made in the last 40 years on the treatment and support of people living with HIV infection (PWH), including much work conducted here at UNMC. But every inch of progress has been hard-fought, and there is still plenty of work to be done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This month, in recognition of HIV\/AIDS Awareness month, we will focus our posts on education, research, achievements, and medicine pertaining to the HIV\/AIDS epidemic. We have many successes to celebrate, and hopefully many more to look forward to in the future of PWH care. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2022\/12\/EHE_Goal_Graphic-01-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4889\" width=\"426\" height=\"239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2022\/12\/EHE_Goal_Graphic-01-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2022\/12\/EHE_Goal_Graphic-01-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2022\/12\/EHE_Goal_Graphic-01-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2022\/12\/EHE_Goal_Graphic-01-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2022\/12\/EHE_Goal_Graphic-01.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Keep an eye out for upcoming HIV\/AIDS awareness posts, and please share what you learn.
