The Miracle of HIV: Are you ready for this? In four studies done is various parts of the world in 2011 and 2012 the latest estimate of life longevity for someone infected today with access to health care is now 53.7 years. Let's let that just soak in a bit. In 1995 when this type of study was first done the time from infection to death was estimated to be on average eleven years. This is the miracle we have today.
