Brief Answer:
CD4 less than 350 is the guide point.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have carefully read your query and understand your concern.
The treatment for HIV is started when the CD4 count is less than 350 cells/ul. This is the standard benchmark figure.
Your longevity depends on various factors:
1.maintain high CD4 counts above 1500/ul.
2.prevent or treat any infections early.
3.have rich nutritious food,
4.avoid smoking and alcohol.
5.maintain good hygiene.
6.have high levels of strong mind and soul.
Post your further queries if any,
Thank you
