An affordable ,globally available drug-low dose aspirin-could help prevent HIV transmission, scientists say.
HIV infection rates remain unacceptably high,especially among young African women.
Researchers,including those from ‘ university of manitoba’ in Canada tested the effect of acetylsalicylic acid(ASA or Aspirin)and other anti-inflammatory drugs on HIV target cells in a group of Kenyan women who were at low risk for HIV.

Researchers found that Aspirin was the most effective anti-inflammatory drug, reducing HIV target cells by 35%.
