Can a Pill (ARVS) a Day for a negative individual protect from HIV acquisition? Research has given an emphatic YES. 75% efficacy for those who had good adherence. World Health Organisation has recommended and given the guidelines. FDA did the same. South Africa has produced the guidelines. At Kenya Medical Research Institute, Lumumba, we are offering Pre Exposure Prophylaxis for HIV discordant couples who are not yet on ARVs. The drug we dispense is called Truvada. It is being used as part of treatment for HIV but for this it is used for prevention What do you think? Do you know any discordant couple who may want to benefit from this? Given the opportunity, will you take it? Helpline 0724 669 645
