Thank you @sustainabil-id.bsky.social for inviting me and my colleague, Dr. Govind, to speak on the issue of #HIV and #sustainability. Forced us to delve into this. There are few studies and observations but largely an area we dont talk much about. If anyone is interested, DM me! Love to collaborate
Hi #HIVSky, Just reaching out as I am interested in environmental sustainability” in HIV. Looking for eg of HIV programs that are incorporating sustainable practices with measurable impacts. Also interested in understanding how to decarbonise HIV while striving for the end of the epidemic. Thank you

US based STOMP trial of tecovirimat (tpoxx) for clade 2 mpox fails to demonstrate efficacy benefit. Just as it did not in PALM 007 in clade 1 mpox in DRC. There is no known treatment for mpox Vaccination is the key control strategy and more research is needed. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38190312/
Early Tecovirimat Treatment for Mpox Disease Among People With HIV - PubMed
Results of this cohort study support starting tecovirimat in all PWH as soon as an mpox diagnosis is suspected. Additional research is warranted to confirm these findings.
