🆕 BREAKING – New @WHO guidance – People living with #HIV who achieve an undetectable viral load who are on consistent ART can not pass HIV on to their sexual partner(s) & are at low risk of transmitting HIV vertically to their children. #UequalsU#IAS2023
For people living with #HIV, this is the biggest news coming out of this conference. Millions of people around the world living with HIV can now say ‘We have zero risk of transmitting HIV when we are on medication and suppressed.’ - @PreventionAC's Micheal Ighodaro 🇺🇸 #IAS2023
