Question

Is it better to move to the UK or the US?

Please i am from Ghana and I am a general nurse,

I have also been HIV positive since 2017 and have been undetectable since then. i have a wife who is negative and I am planning on working as a nurse in the UK or the US.

I want to know which of these two will be a best option for me. Is quality of life with hiv better in the UK or the US?

Hi there

I am sorry but i-Base is focussed on questions about HIV treatment.

As a trained nurse you might be able to work in either country, but please find out about health care first.

This might be more important than quality of life.

Anyone in the UK can get free HIV treatment but healthcare in the US is more complicated, and involves insurance.

Perhaps contacting nurses organisations in both countries might help.

Good luck with your plans.
