Beyond Viral Suppression: How Addressing Mental Health Directly Reduces Morbidity and Mortality in People with HIV Francine Cournos, MD December 5, 2023
Conclusions
Among PWH, death from HIV disease is diminishing, while death due to the direct effects of mental disorders are increasing.
There is a great need to better integrate mental health and substance use services into HIV prevention, care, and treatment.
Addressing mental wellness and mental illness is the job of every health care provider who works with people with or at risk for HIV.
