The Ghana AIDS Commission (GAC) has reiterated that there is still no cure for HIV, urging persons diagnosed with the disease to remain on antiretroviral (ARV) treatment to suppress the virus and live long with healthy lives.
Dr Akanbong said modern HIV treatment had become more convenient, with some patients able to take a single combination tablet daily, making adherence easier.
"There is hope in ART treatment.
There is hope to live healthy and live your God-given life," he said.
She said responsible reporting could encourage people to test, promote health-seeking behaviour, increase awareness of HIV prevention options and support treatment adherence.
