Interesting. Summarising from an Aidsmap article >>
Researchers found people with HIV had an 18% higher risk of a cardiovascular event.
When cholesterol, blood fats and diabetes are well managed, PLWHIV and people without HIV had the same risk for cardiovascular diseases.

I absolutely loved How to Tell a Secret, available on Netflix. It's a documentary/piece of art exploring what it's like to be HIV+ in contemporary Ireland, centred around the issue of disclosure.
Huge well done to all involved! It's such a beautiful and important piece of work!
