FDA approves first injectable HIV prevention drug

[+ BenjaminNicholas]

And this comes not long after the release of Cabenuva, a twice-monthly injection treatment for those living with HIV.  

It's just awesome to see this kind of progress.  

Now, with mRNA being tested on a wider scope, I hope the momentum continues.

Long overdue and extending a warm welcome~

My understanding is that there is already an injectible treatment for HIV suppression that lasts 6 months. Why would a twice monthly injection be superior?

I think you are referring to a new drug still on trial, but not sure.

Not FDA approved. It's in early trials.

I hear of this the same day I get advertising asking if I used Truvada for a class-action lawsuit.

Damn, I don't know what class-action to join first.  Truvada or getting some of those mesothelioma billions.

I'm awash in options.

I think you've been around the dark net for too long. 

I am sure it's a Nigerian scam!

is being sexually active a bad thing?

Is hiring once a month less promiscuous than hiring once a week?

No, it's not.  You do you 😀👍

It's just his way of slut-shaming strangers and trying to make himself feel superior.
