These diseases can appear earlier in people living with HIV compared to those who do not have it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How to influence the extension of life span and years of good health?<\/strong><br>Age, genetics, family history of disease, or the presence of HIV if we have it, cannot be influenced.
