India has an estimated 20.9 lakh people living with HIV. However, nearly 30 -35 percent of these do not know there HIV status. After a person gets infected with HIV, there is a long asymptomatic period of 5-8 years when infected person may not have any symptoms till his immunity goes down significantly and he start getting different opportunistic infection like TB, diarrhoea, fungal infection etc. Hence most of the HIV infected persons present to health system in late stage when immunity is very low and their response to treatment may not be optimal. Also during this long asymptomatic period of 5-8 years, though they are infected but may not be aware of HIV status and are capable of spreading the infection their spouse or others if they continue to indulge unprotected sex.

Early detection of PLHIV is beneficial for patient himself as he can receive timely appropriate treatment including ART as well as for the community to stop further transmission of HIV.

We invite suggestion from community/ NGO/ CBO/ Civil society and public at large their views/ ideas on How to facilitate early detection of People Living with HIV (PLHIV) and put them on ART as soon as possible.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 26th November, 2014.

I was working on developing molecular tools for diagnostic purposes. Tools are even being developed for less invasive cancer diagnostics. In this scenario, it is quite possible to develop a cheaper technology detect HIV or viral proteins and DNA from blood. I am trying to start up or support forefront molecular biology research here. I am interested and willing to share my scientific knowledge or ideas, if I could get to talk with respective people. Sincerely, Nikhil

At first we have to create awareness regarding the problem.we have to address what are the problem we faced during this dices.cut out the fear from people regarding HIV.motivate them.make them assure that we all are ready to help them each an every moment.they are the member of our life,our society.find out the willingness from them and treat them not only as a patient as a Hero of Survival.

I suggest following steps :- 1. First make the test for HIV available at free in all govt hospitals, 2. All patients coming to govt hospitals shd be screened compulsorily for HIV, 3. All govt employees , both in stars and centre, shd be screened for HIV, 4. Red light areas in the country shd be at the centre of testing HIV and all those who r found positive for it , shd be isolated from red light area and kept in isolation and treated till she becomes negative for HIV, 5. Abolish eunuchs
