It has been almost 40 years since HIV emerged in the human population with an alarming impact in 1981, quickly reaching pandemic proportions. Reaching the goal of eradication, or at least ending the pandemic, however, has not been as easy as hoped. To better understand and therefore better address the persistence and often devastating effects of this now chronic disease, the heterogeneity of HIV-in the virus-human and human-human relationships it engages-is parsed in discussions of the groups affected and the multiple factors that drive the diverse effects of the disease, both of which make treatment and prevention of the disease highly challenging. The construct of time cognition is then considered as a heretofore unexplored factor that may inform our understanding of HIV-relevant behaviors.
自 1981 年 HIV 在人群中出现以来，已经过去了将近 40 年，其惊人的影响迅速达到了大流行的程度。然而，要实现消除 HIV 的目标，或者至少结束这一大流行病，并不像人们希望的那样容易。为了更好地理解并因此更好地应对这种慢性疾病的持续存在和经常造成毁灭性影响的问题，HIV 在病毒-人类和人类-人类关系中的异质性在讨论受影响人群和驱动疾病多种影响的多种因素时被剖析，这两个因素都使该疾病的治疗和预防极具挑战性。时间认知结构随后被视为一个迄今尚未被探索的因素，它可能有助于我们理解与 HIV 相关的行为。
