HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) can attack the human body. It can target the body’s immune system. In doing so, it can weaken the system. A weakened immune system is prone to attack by foreign bodies like viruses and bacteria. This can make a person infected with multiple diseases. When left untreated, it can cause a person to acquire AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome).
Although there is no effective cure for HIV, the right treatment can help a patient lead a healthy life while living with the virus. An HIV Duo test helps to detect both, P24 antigen and antibodies against HIV 1 and 2. Performing HIV screening is the only way to know for sure that someone has the virus. If you have the virus in you, early detection can help you begin the right treatment in time. It will help you feel better and live a longer life. At the same time, you might also be able to take steps to avoid passing on the virus to other people.
Who Should Get The Test Done?
Ideally, it is recommended for everyone between the age of 13 and 64. However, there are some cases in which frequent testing may be essential, at least once a year.
