There was a buzz in the NAM office yesterday when we saw this review of our HIV Treatments Directory in the medical journal The Lancet Infectious Diseases:
"HIV Treatments Directory is definitely much more than merely a directory. It is, in my opinion, a comprehensive manual that provides adequate general background information on HIV infection and AIDS, with a subject-by-subject, rich, and up-to-date bibliography.
The book is given a logical structure with appropriately titled and well written chapters that highlight the most relevant information for the whole spectrum of potential readers."
In his review, Dr Buonaguro focuses on the importance of making this information widely available – an issue close to the NAM team’s heart. We believe that access to up-to-date, evidence-based information about HIV is vital to enable individuals and communities affected by HIV to protect themselves, care for others, advocate for better services and challenge stigma and discrimination. This is why the HIV Treatments Directory and a whole range of other information resources are also available for free on our website.
So whether you are keeping up to date with current or future treatment options, training others about HIV treatment, or fact checking specific information on symptoms and side-effects, you will find everything you need in one easy-to-consult place.
'"HIV Treatments Directory is an essential manual that should be advertised to as many people as possible worldwide." So have a look for yourself and please help us spread the word...
