HIV: Pathway to Progress
HIV Prevention, PrEP, PEP & Beyond
In Episode 5 of HIV: Pathway to Progress, we bring you a powerful panel discussion recorded during our Pathway to Progress event held in Maryland last month. Experts from Total Healthcare Baltimore, Chase Brexton, the Human Rights Campaign, Gilead, and FreeState Justice join us to dive deep into the world of HIV prevention, PrEP, PEP, and beyond.
In this conversation, professionals on the frontlines share insights into the urgent need for access to PrEP today, the stigma still holding communities back, and the challenges they face in spreading vital HIV prevention information. They also discuss their hopes for the future of HIV decriminalization and ensuring equitable access to prevention resources.
Tune in to hear these experts shed light on the challenges and progress being made in HIV prevention, and learn how we can all contribute to a healthier, more inclusive future for those at risk.
