Several discussions highlight the importance of the findings, emphasizing how the research can influence prevention strategies and public health policies.

Abstract in brief

  • The study found that early antiretroviral therapy (ART) reduced the risk of HIV-1 transmission by over 96% among serodiscordant couples, meaning couples where one partner is infected and the other is not.
  • Participants were divided into two groups: one started ART early when their CD4 counts were between 350 and 550, while the other started ART later, only after their counts dropped below 250 or they showed symptoms.
  • The results showed that early ART significantly lowered the risk of transmitting HIV-1 to the uninfected partner, with no linked infections observed when the infected partner's virus was fully suppressed by ART.]
