Figure 2. Suboptimal Viral Suppression after Starting HAART
This graph illustrates the concept of failing to optimally suppress HIV RNA levels after initiating HAART. Although the HIV RNA levels substantially decrease, the levels never decrease to a level considered as optimal viral suppression (HIV RNA levels less than 50 copies/ml). Note that the HIV RNA value at 24 weeks (red circle) has remained greater than 50 copies/ml.
