YEZTUGO (lenacapavir) is a new injectable form of long-acting PrEP that only requires 2 doses per year to prevent HIV infection, and 3 million people are expected to get access to the drug by 2028 via The Global Fund. Sounds great, right? (1/5)

A drug exists that is nearly 100% effective at preventing HIV and only needs to be taken twice a year. It's called lenacapavir. But Gilead, the company that controls it, isn't making enough available for the world. We know Gilead can make lenacapavir more accessible.

Happy Pride! This June and July we are studying the heroic activism of the ACT UP movement. HIV treatment is often critical to TB patients and the advocates in this book set the example for the work we all do today.

The cover of the book "It Was Vulgar & It Was Beautiful. How Aids Activists Used Art To Fight A Pandemic" by Jack Lowery, and the TBReaders logo. There's also a discussion question: "what are you looking forward to learning from this book?"
