Newly released WHO Consolidated Guidelines on HIV, Hepatitis, and STI prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care for key populations

who.int/news/item/29-0…

#AIDS2022
Essential health interventions recommended below! Image
And newly released UNAIDS Report, highlighting HIV acquisition amongst priority populations Image
While I appreciate the urgency in the new WHO report, seeing IN DANGER written on so many pages is quite jarring when it comes to priority populations, especially when these populations often face stigma and discrimination and are often times wrongly deemed a “danger”to society
That having been said, the language within the report really makes an effort to prioritize key populations. Could do with less risk based language but overall, appreciate the well rounded evidence based approach towards providing care for priority populations

#AIDS2022 Plenary Session on HIV in Indigenous Cultures in Canada
Stigma amongst Indigenous peoples with HIV still prominent, especially in rural areas still play a role, secondary to imposed ideology of Church and colonization
This is a major barrier to reaching 95-95-95 goals
A call for Indigenous People to be included as a Priority Population in the global HIV response, with global commitment to these peoples all around the world, wherever Indigenous People happen to be. #AIDS2022
Converging syndemic of HIV and the opioid epidemic, with COVID-19 exposing the cracks in the system, along with the increasing need to focus on and prioritize mental health during the lockdown has greatly affected Indigenous Peoples #AIDS2022

Good morning from Day 2 from #AIDS2022, first talk, the possibility of HIV mRNA Vaccine
Difficulties - HIV integrates into DNA, highly mutable, and complex response to HIV envelope glycoprotein
An mRNA vaccine was able to create broadly neutralizing antibodies however much different landscape on surface of HIV compared to SARS-COV-2
mRNA sticks around, is cheap to produce, easily modified, and creates endogenous protein
Of course vaccine equity is v important #AIDS2022
Possibility to Prime, then boost multiple times to create broadly neutralizing Abs, would require multiple clinical trials
IAVI G001 - 2 immunizations of vaccine, low dose and high dose arms, well tolerated, 94-97% response, increased mutation levels on second vaccine #AIDS2022

It’s starting!!! Updates to come after the presentation but updates to the CDC STI Guidelines @CDCSTD #IDtwitter Image
The current state of Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, primary and secondary Syphilis, Congenital Syphilis, and the effect of COVID-19 on STI testing ImageImageImage
The roles of clinicians in STI prevention, the purpose of the guidelines as well as the major themes, and the importance of STI vs STD (infection refers to an organism infecting an individual whereas disease refers to a clinical process and as we know many STIs are asymptomatic) ImageImageImageImage
