This Trans Day of Visibility, and every day, we stand firmly by all trans people, living with or without #HIV. In a year that has demonstrated increasing hostility and transphobia, it has never been more vital to stand up for everybody's fundamental rights 🏳️‍⚧️

Have you completed the Ask Us Europe survey? For the first time, it asks about neurodiversity-and we need more autistic/ADHD voices to understand how HIV treatment is being discussed across Europe. If you’re autistic and/or have ADHD and living with HIV, please take part. bit.ly/4m5ktRm

The HIV Action Plan has promise — but real progress needs action and accountability. Prisons, women, trans people + marginalised groups must not be left behind. You can read our public statement regarding to new HIV Action Plan below.

Recent claims linking autism to Tylenol or vaccines are not supported by science. We stand firmly against misinformation that fuels stigma, fear, and distrust in healthcare. Our community values evidence-based information, respect for lived experience, and the right to safe, informed care.

🚨 Gilead’s lenacapavir could be a game-changer for #HIV — but at $28K/year, it’s priced out of reach for most. Generics could cost <$50. We’re calling on Gilead to make it affordable for all, not just the privileged few. Please find UK-CAB public response below.

📢 #NHSEngland has updated the TAF prescribing policy – mainly to clarify eligibility & introduce a simple approval form (Blueteq). ✅ No changes to patient access. 📄 Clinicians just need to submit a tick-box form. More updates on ART prescription coming soon – we will keep you posted. #HIV

UK #lenacapavir Early Access Programme closed to new referrals as @england.nhs.uk and #Gilead fail to agree a price after more than two years: i-base.info/htb/50940 NHS England took responsibility for approving access to this life-saving drug – this delay and result is unacceptable. #HIVsky #MDR

🚨 The Lenacapavir Early Access Programme has closed to new patients. This life-saving #HIV treatment is now out of reach for those who need it most. We urge NHS England & Gilead to act now. Access to Lenacapavir must be restored. Urgently. Community organisations: speak up. Silence costs lives.

The title of the print reads: The Denver Principles, which is fluro pink on white. 1983 is written in big, blue bubble lettering, vertically and intersecting with the title. The subheading, in blue text, reads: Statement from the Advisory Committee of the People with AIDS, 1983. The rest of the text is too small to read but can be found via the linked article.
