This block is made up of smaller blocks, coloured, dark blue, red, teal, orange and mustard. The logos for CROI and BHIVA are at the bottom of the image.

Prof Sarah Fidler presents the long-awaited results of #RIOstudy of dual bNAbs vs placebo in people with early HIV.

Pts receiving bNAbs were 91% more likely to experience viral suppression up to 20 weeks compared to placebo, and more than a third remained suppressed after two doses beyond 72 wks.
