Recently, I've seen a number of patients for new #HIV diagnoses that have described frustrating experiences of trying to obtain #PrEP. One patient said when he finally worked up the courage to ask his PCP about starting PrEP, he was told to "just use condoms." 1/

Our meta-analysis of #HCV in #PrEP users now available open access in @OFIDJournal. We found lower HCV incidence in contexts where HCV #DAAs have been implemented at-scale - indicative of HCV treatment as prevention among gay and bisexual men.

#PrEP is a powerful tool for #HIV prevention Still, too many barriers to PrEP exist for too many people. Sometimes, the barriers are medical providers Improving access to PrEP is critical. Greatly appreciate @juanmichaelii for discussing a few (of the many) ways to ⬇️ barriers

Many states have done a good job of reducing barriers to Hep C treatment; yet only 20% treated within 6 months; 35% overall. Providers must ensure newly + get treated. Why don’t they?
Adam Gaffney@awgaffney

2 states still require Medicaid enrollees to have liver scarring before they can be cured of Hepatitis C. Akin to requiring cancer to metastasize before allowing surgery From "Hepatitis C: State of Medicaid Access" / Harvard law school stateofhepc.org/2023-national-…

#PrEP reduces anxiety, increases intimacy and leads to more pleasurable sex, but these values-based outcomes are neglected in PrEP resources. In @TheLancetHIV we argue for better integration of potential user-reported benefits in PrEP training & guidelines authors.elsevier.com/a/1hZac8MsVoa8…

@ShakiraaHarding See people talking about the "good 'ol days." But there was too much time spent with the "why don't you sit here & watch me write this note" activities. We felt the need to be there until dismissed or had to ask "anything I can do?" 😂 To me, this seems like a better system.

Although #PrEP use has increased, disparities remain. To #EndHIVEpidemic, we need to ensure equal access to #HIV prevention and care for everyone.

Nice to see some @UCLA_Pathology #ClinicMicro group here! They've been working to build #NGS pipelines at the lab and also doing some great teaching on #WGS and #genomics analyses. @UCLA_ID
