How long do you have to have lived in the UK to receive HIV care and tablets, if you are from another country?
Answer
Thank you for your question.
First, I want to apologize for the delay in responding to it.
Access to HIV treatment and care in the UK depends on what country you are coming from and the type of visa you have. If you are an EU passport holder and or student and you are studying in the UK for at least a year, you can access treatment the National Health Service as soon as you need it.
