It has been several years since Sri Lanka was certified as a country that has completely prevented mother-to-child transmission of HIV.
Confirming this, the Trincomalee STD Clinic was able to give birth to a non-infected child for an HIV positive mother.
Special mention should be made of the contribution of the obstetrician and gynecologist of the Trincomalee General Hospital, the Director of the Hospital and all the staff.
HIV is a preventable disease, and only requires proper advice and treatment from a qualified physician.
