Email 528: About HIV/AIDS Treatment Hubs
Posted by Pozziepinoy on 3:33 PM
Hi..how about for people leaving far from Manila like the provinces...they cannot come every 3 months to take the medications...
POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE
Hi.
Thank you for your email. Thank you for your concern.
As much as the government can help, still having treatment hubs in every province is difficult and costly. That is why, our government is trying to decentralize the hubs and put them to the different regions. If the PLHIV's can't go to Metro Manila, then they can go to any of the different provincial hubs near them. Some hubs would send through courier a PLHIV's ARV's if really needed, so the PLHIV can coordinate with his or her hub if the need arises. Click the list of hubs in the Philippines below:
I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.
Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
