Further to the blog entry "DWP's Own medical guidance on HIV/AIDS". The content seems to have been updated after this initial blog entry.

You can find the section on the DWP website for HIV/AIDS by clicking here.

We note amongst the most important changes. Is the change to "Sources of Evidence" noting that the GP is not always aware of diagnosis. We know of some who have been "outed" to their GP because of the impatience of the DWP to wait for the consultant to return the medical report and in haste going straight to the persons non-specialised GP.

Also a new graph on the "Clinical Features Page" and AIDS defining illnesses mentioned also. Which is good to see as they seemed to not deal or recognise AIDS at all.

There is also mention of Hepatitis C in the Prognosis & Duration page.

Hope this proves useful.
