Today is World Aids Day, an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV.
RCSI Library has acess to a number of HIV/AIDS resources. Of particular interest may be the Cochrane Library special collection on HIV/AIDS, a selection of Cochrane Reviews on the subject.The focus of this collection is on antiretroviral therapy and many of these reviews formed the basis for the World Health Organisation's 2013 guidelines on the use of antiretroviral drugs for treating and preventing HIV/AIDS infection.
You can access the Cochrane Library through the database section of the library website at www.rcsi.ie/library and the link to the HIV/AIDS special collection can be found on the Cochrane homepage.
