More product choice, including biomedical #PEP in addition to #PrEP, is needed to meet people’s #HIVprevention needs. Exciting findings from Uganda presented by Elijah Kakande on behalf of the SEARCH team at #CROI2023.

In SEARCH study data suggests that PrEP options (oral vs injectable) increased access and ⬇️ HIV incidence to ZERO! #CROI2024 Abst #172

"In the 1st RCT of a personcentered model offering structured choice between #CAB, oral #PrEP & PEP w/ option to change over time, enrolling both women & men at risk of HIV, SEARCH DCP intervention increased biomedical covered time by >5fold to 69.7% & reduced HIV incidence to 0"
