NOVA: Ending HIV in America (S49EP17 PBS Wednesday October 5, 2022)
Ending HIV in America: Could the AIDS epidemic in America finally be over nearly 40 years after the discovery of HIV? In the US, there were only 34,000 new cases of the disease as of 2019—an accomplishment that once seemed virtually unattainable. How did researchers and the public health sector combat one of the deadliest and most elusive viruses to ever infect people? Can cutting-edge medications and treatments eradicate all new infections? This is the account of a fantastic scientific breakthrough and the public health work that is still required to eradicate HIV in America.
