I mean, that is certainly nice, but I am not quite sure I can follow the logic:
> Pills have been available for years and are still extremely effective at stopping HIV infections, but are not always easy for some to take.
If people can’t take daily pills, maybe they should not live unsupervised?
> It can be hard to access, not practical, or feel embarrassing. For example, people might worry someone like parents or housemates could find their pills.
I thought we had moved past the stigma. Especially since this is prevention, not treatment.
> Homelessness and domestic violence can make it difficult to take oral PrEP every day.
Maybe we should address homelessness and DV? (And I know that is difficult, but it needs to be done.)
Very happy to hear this. I take PrEP currently and it is a bit annoying to have to take the daily pill, and there have been a few times when I’ve been busy and missed a day. Would be easier to just get a jab every 6 months.
What a dirty scam. No, you absolutely do not need that jab. A fake “vaccine” (they don’t call it a vaccine, just a “shot” – they’re learning) for a fake virus. This is absolute crackpot medical fraud. I suppose at least they haven’t directly made the claim that it protects against “AIDS”.
