HIV related dementia

Many people with HIV are now living longer following the development of better treatment options, but what happens when the virus affects the brain? In some people, HIV/ AIDS can lead to a syndrome of dementia, affecting memory, attention, mood and behaviour. Professor Bruce Brew is interviewed by Leigh Hatcher and discusses the different types of brain disease that can occur, early community perceptions and misperceptions of HIV/ AIDS, and current issues facing the patients and carers living beyond HIV.
