Abstract
The HIV/AIDS has cost humanity countless material and human losses. Study its dynamics has become a priority for the global scientific community, with the idea of establishing an effective control policy and subsequently analyzing its eradication. This paper presents a model based on transition matrix of Markov chains with the objective to design a future strategy to reduce the appearance of new cases and decrease the lethality of this epidemic.
