Good explanations of the life of HIV
Hey Melinda,
I know you packed a lot of relevant and useful information in to this HIV 101 presentation, however, some of the information is out of date. A prime example is TaSP, or U=U. It's listed in this presentation that there is no "safe level of undetectable and that being undetectable can still transmit" the virus. In July of 2021 the CDC updated their guidance based on the Partner studies.
I realize you're probably already aware of all this - but if not, I would be happy to help in any way I can
