Interview with EACS Guidelines Coordinator Dr Juan Ambrosioni
For World Health Day on 7 April, we spoke with Dr Juan Ambrosioni, the new EACS Guidelines Coordinator:
"The ultimate aim of EACS and EACS Guidelines is to reduce the HIV burden across Europe and improve the quality of life of people living with HIV. The EACS Guidelines should not be seen as a replacement of other sources of information. Instead, the Guidelines consist of a single document that highlights essential knowledge required for managing all HIV-related topics."
