Top 5 advances in medical science this week (🧵)

1. Potential for year-long HIV protection in one dose

Lenacapavir prevents HIV with 99.9-100% efficacy when given twice per year - this is a new formulation that allows it to be given just once per year

Lenacapavir is not a vaccine - it's a long-acting anti-retroviral that stops HIV from establishing infection

This is a phase 1 trial, so there’s no efficacy data, but the drug's plasma concentration stayed at higher levels than the 6-monthly formulation that achieved ≥99.9% efficacy, without safety concerns

The dose needs to be optimised, and it has to progress further through trials, but this has potential to expand access to an extremely effective tool for HIV prevention

High dose vitamin C causes kidney stones. If you are not deficient in vitamin C (scurvy), there is little additional benefit to taking MORE. Best source are fruits which balance vit C with naturally occurring citrate (which is a kidney stone inhibitor)

@hubermanlab For the best care whether it’s in the clinic or the hospital start with one problem at a time, preferably the one that is most important to you and before giving more information or bringing up another symptom let your doctor ask questions around that problem to guide the convo.

He's done multiple CBC and it howers between 600-800k!

He is worried about it 😕
