Victoria Pilkington estimates the potential impact of opt-out #HIV testing in Primary Care if this were integrated into the NHS Health Checks programme. This has the potential to identify more people outside of ED opt-out testing, and may be more cost effective! #BHIVABASHH26

The adultifying & sexualisation of children because they are Trans is deeply disturbing & harmful. This article is talking about discriminating against 12 and 13 year old girls simply because they are Trans.

Today BASHH & the APPG on HIV, AIDS & Sexual Health hosted a drop-in at Westminster, urging MPs to prioritise sexual health in the NHS 10-Year Plan. With record STI rates, timely and equitable access to care is vital.

Speaking in Munich yesterday on #HIVinWomen couldn’t have been more poignant. #HIVtreatment & #HIVprevention has seen real falls in global mortality, prevalence & new diagnoses in the last 10y. The PEPFAR funding crisis puts all this at risk, in particular for women. We must all work to protect them

One of the first websites that this "notice" went up on was one encouraging researchers to include women in clinical trials. This is not, and never has been just a war on transgender people. It's also a war on women. And the feminists who threw trans people under the bus are complicit.

Puts shell to ear: ["I'm still the goddamn Gulf of Mexico."]

Holding governments responsible for meeting the #HIV prevention targets cannot be done alone. 📋✅ Here are our top tips for building successful coalitions to ensure governments fulfil their commitments. 📽️ Watch here: youtu.be/gKxsCkqkEBU
