This rather lengthy article is about Michael Weinstein. He is the head of the Los Angeles based AIDS Healthcare Foundation. The article is seriously worth the read. He pronounces his views on the drug, Truvada & the use of it as a PrEP medication as a line of defense against HIV.
The article presents his opposition from government agencies, the porn industry, the pharmaceutical industry & even other HIV activists. He states the info about PrEP could not only be misleading, but it could wind up leading to a health disaster. The article goes on about how he feels this will lead to a lessening application of other safe sex practices.
I've wrote about my concerns over this medication before. I think Truvada is going to be a bad call in the long run. Do yourself a favor & read the article. If you're considering using the med as a PrEP, then make sure you're as educated as possible.
Cya...
