El tratamiento no solo hace que la infección por el VIH sea crónica y no progrese. También evita que, cuando la carga viral (la cantidad de virus que circula en sangre) es indetectable, se transmita la infección. Las restricciones de acceso al tratamiento aumentará el nº de nuevas infecciones. #TasP

New @cmaj.ca piece authored by Drs. Julio Montaner & Robert Hogg and Stephen Lewis outlines why Canada should not miss its opportunity to lead the global effort in sustaining progress toward 2030 #HIV targets by delivering on the promise of a made-in-Canada strategy - #TasP - to end HIV/AIDS!
Editorial: We have made remarkable progress in fighting HIV/AIDS

The @timescolonist.bsky.social highlighting how #TasP has dramatically changed the landscape of HIV in BC and what we need to get across the finish line in our fight to end HIV/AIDS.
Dr. Julio Montaner sat down with @thetyee.ca to discuss the impact of US cuts to foreign aid programs, and how Canada can step up its own #HIV response in light of these global impacts, by scaling up BC’s approach implementing Treatment as Prevention. #TasP #HIVprevention

"In addition to powerful prevention agents, Bekker also reminded the audience of the great benefits of #TasP. Undetectable = Untransmittable ( #UequalsU ) remains one of the most formidable means of ending the HIV epidemic."
We have the tools, we need the resolve & funding to end the HIV epidemic.
With devastating cuts to global health funding threatening our progress made in HIV/AIDS, Dr. Julio Montaner pens an urgent call to arms in @hilltimes.com, for G7 leaders to step up and fund proven HIV treatment & prevention strategies like #TasP globally.

Thank you to @rebootcomm.bsky.social for inviting Dr. Julio Montaner to present his keynote session "Treatment as Prevention: The Key to end HIV/AIDS" at the 25th Annual Healthcare Summit.
A highly engaging morning of presentations and discussions alongside Dr. Pieter Cullis.

Treatment as prevention #TasP refers to ways we can use HIV drugs to lower the risk of transmitting #HIV. So not only can treatment positively affect the health and well-being of those living with HIV, it also serves to protect those who are not. Learn more ⤵️

From left to right at the 2014 Ward 10C closing event: Dr. Julio Montaner, Terry Lake, Christy Clark, Tiko Kerr and Michel Sidibe.
Eleven years ago today, Dr. Julio Montaner announced the closure of the AIDS ward at St. Paul’s Hospital. Once the epicentre of Canada’s fight against HIV/AIDS, the repurposing of a largely unused ward 10C was a symbolic reminder of the great strides made through BC’s #TasP strategy.
Vaccines play a critical role in our sexual health. This new British recommendation of the MEN-B vaccine to help prevent #gonorrhea is part of my pillars of sexual health including Hep A& B, HPV, MPOX, and MEN-ACWY vaccines as well as #PrEP, #DoxyPEP, and #TasP www.bbc.com/news/article...

Dr. Julio Montaner spoke with CBC News raising the alarm at rising rates of #HIV in Canada (35% increase from 2022 to 2023) and calls on the federal government to make treatment and services free and without barrier.

BC Minister of Health @josieosborne.bsky.social marks #WorldAIDSDay2024 highlighting the work of the BC-CfE & organizations like PAN in supporting & treating people living with #HIV across BC.
Strong provincial support for #TasP + #PrEP is key to its success!

Image of a world map, with the World AIDS Day logo and following text overlaid: “How are we doing? Globally we are seeing historic progress among some jurisdictions in ending the AIDS epidemic. These successes however, are uneven, and 1.3 million people globally were diagnosed with HIV in 2023 - 3 times greater than the 2025 target. Inequities increase vulnerabilities, weaken access to HIV services and undermine the global HIV response. Without a united effort, these inequities are threatening the progress being made.”
In BC, thanks to strong, fully funded provincial support of #TasP & #PrEP, we have seen greater than 90% declines in #HIV morbidity, mortality & transmission, met the UNAIDS 90-90-90 Targets & declared the end of the domestic HIV epidemic in the province last year. #WorldAIDSDay2024
For those living with #HIV, there are simple, effective treatments that lower your viral load to undetectable levels, keeping you healthy & preventing you from passing HIV to your partner. This is known as #TreatmentasPrevention or #TasP & forms the scientific basis of #UequalsU.
