"I’ve been so afraid to talk about U = U for so long now because I can detect some level of guilt for having been sexually active for so long before finding out I was HIV positive."
What is U = U?
How did it change Wanggo's life?
Blood Makes Noise
Multi month dispensing (MMD) is now in the ART guidelines!
MMD is a differentiated or person-centered approach of providing six months’ supply or more of ARV for PLHIV established on ART depending on the need and situation.

Why is the Condom so controversial?
You would think it's pretty basic in the prevention of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases, and that people wouldn't think twice to require it during sex.
Things are apparently more complicated than we think.
With the first case documented in the country, what do we need to prepare for? How do we prevent Monkeypox spread? How do we know if we have it? How do we confirm if it is indeed Monkeypox? What can we do to treat it? Is the vaccine available?

Adding three pediatric formulations of ARV regimens meant that children are able to access lifesaving HIV medications.
In February 2022, one child aged 2 years was reported to have HIV from MTCT. Filipino Children living with HIV, would benefit from these ARVs.

On May 13, 2020, the Health Technology Assessment Council recommended the INCLUSION of three ARV medicines in the Philippine National Formulary for the treatment of HIV.
Michael Carter rose to the spotlight when he shared his experience in joining a COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial in 2020. PLHIV participation in trials led to the confidence we have now in recommending the COVID-19 vaccine to people living with HIV.
#positibongbakunado
Treatment optimization in HIV has led us to an ideal one-pill-a-day formulation for many drug regimens. Now scientists are finding a way to get ARVs down to once a month shots. Is this what the future holds?
Wanggo tells us more -
Before the long weekend, mag-refill na kayo to make sure may supply kayo ng inyong HIV meds and PrEP from your treatment hubs!
Plan your activities so that you can make use of on-demand PrEP!
(on demand PrEP is for cisgender males or transwomen not on estradiol hormones)
Let’s make it the BIGGEST and the SAFEST! 🌈
