dc.description.abstract	Antiretroviral treatment, when taken consistently, can ensure that a person living with HIV can live a long and healthy life. Yet treatment adherence remains a challenge. Research has shown that mental health struggles can make taking medication challenging. How big a problem is this in South Africa?. A team of HSRC researchers explored the extent of mental distress among people living with HIV and its impact on treatment adherence using the latest national data.	en
