Brazilian Doctor Explains HIV Undetectable Viral Load and Transmission

São Paulo, Brazil – May 22, 2025 – A recent video produced by Estadão Blue Studio in collaboration with GSK Brazil is generating important conversations about HIV and undetectable viral loads. The video features Dr. Vinicius Borges, an infectologist specializing in LGBT+ health, HIV, and STIs, who explains that maintaining HIV treatment can lead to an undetectable viral load, effectively preventing sexual transmission. "Undetectable means the person in treatment for at least six months has so little virus in their blood that they become unable to transmit it sexually," Dr. Borges explains. The video emphasizes the importance of continued treatment, clarifying that it does not equate to a cure. This informative initiative promotes responsible communication about HIV and reinforces the significance of consistent medical care. The video’s clear and accessible presentation makes it a valuable resource for public health education.
