S05_E08 - Where Are We with HIV in 2026?

With Special Guests:  Dr. Amanda Noska, MD 

HIV in 2026 looks much different than it did when it first hit mainstream media in the early 1980s.  At the outset, there was an abundance of fear, very little understanding, and even less hope for those afflicted.  But over the last few decades, we've seen a series of major scientific breakthroughs that have changed our understanding and patient outcomes almost entirely.  But there's still plenty of work to do!

On Episode 8, we'll have an in-depth conversation with infectious disease expert Dr. Amanda Noska (MD, MPH) to catch us up on the current state of both HIV and AIDS.  We'll cover the basics of these conditions, the progress that's been made, the current challenges we face, and what the road ahead looks like for our local and global communities.  This storyline is definitely one of hope and a great example of scientific progress in medicine.  We hope you'll join us!
