We’re very comfortable labelling things as “risky”.
Much less comfortable unpacking what that actually means.
Started writing about that here:

Wearing this vintage 1980s health promotion badge today but now we have more options than ever for STI & HIV prevention: U=U, PrEP, PEP, vaccination, Doxy-PEP
Good sexual health is being empowered to enjoy the safe, pleasurable sex you want, without shame & stigma.

Happy Easter to this great post
Is there anything to be said for an emergency podcast? 🚨👀
Sexual health research grants (HIV and STIs) are dropping like flies. HIV research is especially being targeted. The field is being decimated and I can't begin to explain how bleak the mood is, and the fear of what comes next after this #IDSky #HIVSky #SaveHIVFunding
🚨 New publication 🚨
Delighted to see our Mpox paper published today.

One of the top 5 global antimicrobial resistance threats, Neisseria gonorrhoeae is not to be messed with. We have newer treatment options but still pharyngeal infections are hardest to treat. A reminder to do extragenital site testing and a test of cure for pharyngeal infections at 14 days #STISky
