R to @ECDC_EU: 1/4 healthcare workers lacked knowledge on the concept of "#undetectable equals #untransmittable" (U=U) which means that people with #HIV who achieve and maintain an undetectable viral load cannot sexually transmit the virus to others.

R to @ECDC_EU: Significant gaps in knowledge on #HIV transmission & prevention among #healthcare workers has been revealed - and this associates with higher levels of stigma and discrimination against people living with HIV, hampering efforts to reach the #SDG of Ending AIDS by 2030.
