VIDAS® Leads the Way This World AIDS Day

On this World AIDS Day, we stand united in the fight against HIV. With over 35.3 million people living with HIV worldwide, many remain unaware of their condition, as symptoms can be absent or non-specific. The delay between infection and diagnosis can last weeks, making early detection critical. The VIDAS® automated HIV panel plays a crucial role in early diagnosis by detecting both p24 antigen and anti-HIV antibodies simultaneously, helping to reduce the time between infection and detection. Identifying primary infections early not only helps prevent transmission but also enables timely treatment, leading to better patient outcomes. Let’s continue working together to raise awareness, encourage testing, and improve outcomes for those affected.
