The USA's national health protection agency, known as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on September 27, 2017, officially released the historic report stating "When ART results in viral suppression, defined as less than 200 copies/ml or undetectable levels, it prevents sexual HIV transmission." -Eugene McCray, MD CDC

This news is the motivator for the now commonly used term, Undetectable Equals Untransmittable.

Undetectable Poz

Any person with Hiv who has been adhering to their antivirals and making healthy life choices. Generally if the CD4 count is <20 then this is the threshold for diagnosis. Undetectable people have virtually frozen the replication of the virus and can lead long healthy lives. In fact the CDC has stated that individuals with a low viral count will live just as long as their HIV-negative neighbors. With the progression of newer medication this will only improve the condition further.

Dr: "As long as you maintain your regimen and continue to lead a reasonable healthy lifestyle, you will have a long fulfilled life."
Patient starting to cry: " Fuck, I needed to hear that.:
