How old do babies born with AIDS live to be?!


Question:

How old do babies born with AIDS live to be?


Answers:

Depends.

Without adequate treatment (which even if available is quite difficult to tailor down to a child dosage), about half of HIV+ children die before age of 2yrs.

With effective treatment, decades.

Other factors also play a role: baseline health, which is turn tied to mother's health @ pregnancy, etc.
