Answer:

(d) initiating zidovudine treatment once the newborn’s HIV status is determined.

Explanation:

HIV or Human Immunodeficiency Virus infection leads to the weakening of immune system and can prove fatal for the patient. HIV positive mothers can vertically transmit the infection to their newborns. In such cases, it is very important to take precautions which can reduce the chances of the newborn to contract the infection. Once the HIV status of neonatal is confirmed, anti retroviral therapy can be started. Zidovudine is one such anti retroviral drug. Providing the neonatal zidovudine therapy for six weeks can minimize the chances of HIV infection and can clear the opportunistic infections.
