Where this comes from

Abstract

After more than a decade of special treatment, HIV medicine is ready to enter the mainstream of medical practice in developed countries. Access to a conveniently located, well informed, primary care doctor who works well with an appropriate specialist is the cornerstone of best medical care for chronic illness, including HIV disease. Managing HIV is part of the second phase of a national educational program aimed at equipping more doctors with the skills to care for people with HIV.
