PROPHYLAXIS
The ability to prevent HIV infection has been under study since the disease began and medicines became available. Today studies have shown that if exposed and the person starts treatment in less than 36 hours, the chance of infection is greatly reduced. At the same time, recently the use of antiretrovirals has shown a protective effect in female sex workers who do not always use condoms.
IDEV offers counseling and treatment to all who have been exposed, either on the job (ie health care workers) or contact sexually (voluntarily or through rape). The emergency number was actually conceived as a way to give immediate attention to those in need of such a service.
