East Sussex has become the first place in the UK to offer PrEP, which protects against infection of HIV, through remote services as part of a pilot.

NHS sexual health consultant Dr Vanessa Apea tells #R4Today that the pilot aims to 'expand access' to the drug.

This is such a heartbreaking loss to international HIV prevention, treatment and care. @aidsmap has been such a brilliant partner.

Solidarity to the staff, board and those impacted by this closure.

[Marc Thompson @marct_01]

My life as a man living with HIV, an activist and professional has only been made richer by the work of
@aidsmap

[Marc Thompson @marct_01]

This a such sad & profound loss.
@aidsmap has been a trusted source of reliable information for PWHIV for decades. It has helped so many of us navigate science, + treatment. Gave us hope, information & community.
The HIV ecosystem will be so much poorer without it

[aidsmap @aidsmap]

We are incredibly proud of the millions we've reached worldwide and the grassroots ingenuity and commitment of our team and partners. 🌍❤️

Today we announce some very sad news.
