| Response from Dr. Henry
 The majority of patients who have a good initial response to antiretroviral therapy (well tolerated with clinical improvement, HIV suppression to below level of detectio, and/or CD4 increase) will continue to do well for many years (failure rate generally < 5% /year)as long as adherence remains high and access to drugs continues.
