In a study that supports the widespread use of drugs to help control the AIDS pandemic, researchers said on Wednesday that HIV patients who took the drugs were far less likely to infect their partners.Using the drug cocktail reduced the likelihood of transmission by 92 percent, the researchers reported in the journal Lancet.
They said the findings mean the drug cocktails known as antiretroviral therapy, or ART, might be a useful prevention tool as well as a treatment.
