Treatment as Prevention¨ is based on the concept, pioneered by the BC Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS (BC-CfE), all those diagnosed with HIV should be provided full and immediate access to HIV antiretrovirals. On sustained treatment and care, a person living with HIV experiences improved quality of life and longevity. On treatment, their viral load rapidly decreases and eventually reaches undetectable levels, greatly reducing the likelihood they will transmit HIV.
