Rough estimates say 30% of GBMSM + trans people have used chemsex. Are support services meeting their needs?

This matches earlier results in women and disproves the idea that drug levels in genital tissue are the key to protection.

England is on target to meet the 2030 goal on preventable deaths but not for diagnoses. The plan also misses some #UNAIDS key populations.

#Transgender people accessing #hormones are more likely to stay #undetectable and less likely to become #HIVpositive.

Today is the International Day of Happiness.
But how do you celebrate happiness when Parliament wants to imprison you for who you love?
How do you celebrate happiness when identifying as LGBTQ+ in Ghana could cost you 3 years of your life?
Drop the Bill. Let us ALL be happy.

The Supreme Court of Uganda has scheduled the hearing of the appeal challenging the Anti-Homosexuality Act 2023 for 31 March 2026 at 10:00 a.m., according to official court directions issued by the Registrar.

While the outcome remains in the hands of the Court, the hearing is a reminder that efforts toward justice for the LGBTQ community continue.

On March 31st (this month), along with a team of counsel and appellants, we will be at the Supreme Court of Uganda for the hearing of the appeal against the ruling of the Constitutional Court that largely upheld the Anti-Homosexuality Act 2023. @frankmugisha
