3,500 HIV patients in Mumbai have stopped treatment: MDACS
Around 3,500 HIV-infected patients in Mumbai have abandoned treatment between 2013 and 2016 and nearly 90% have not been traced, according to data from Mumbai District Aids Control Society (MDACS). The fact that a majority of these patients are not traceable means the transmission of the virus could be active, an official from National Aids Control Organisation (NACO) said.
