RT by @ECDC_EU: We are happy to see that more women & girls will be protected against HIV. EMA recommended the dapivirine vaginal ring in 2020 under Medicines for all (EUM4-All) mechanism that allows us to work with @WHO to assess medicines for use outside the EU.

R to @ECDC_EU: Understanding how and in which contexts #HIVstigma manifests in healthcare settings is necessary in order to intervene and address individual and institutional drivers of stigma and discrimination towards people living with #HIV.

[2024-07-23 12:38 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: These findings are particularly important as #HIVstigma is linked to negative healthcare outcomes such as delayed care, avoidance of health facilities, and poor adherence to medication, ultimately hampering #HIV prevention and treatment efforts.
[2024-07-23 12:38 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: Discriminatory practices were also reported, with >20% respondents witnessing unwillingness to provide care to people living with or at risk for #HIV.
Almost 1/3 observed discriminatory remarks/negative comments and nearly 20% witnessed disclosure of HIV status without consent.
[2024-07-23 12:38 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: Some also expressed reservations about providing care to populations at higher risk of #HIV - like people who inject drugs, men who have sex with men, sex workers or transgender individuals.
These attitudes were influenced by a lack of training & a perception of increased risk.
[2024-07-23 12:38 UTC]
R to @ECDC_EU: A small but notable percentage of #healthcare workers (8%) reported that they would avoid physical contact, and a quarter said they would wear double gloves when providing care to a person living with #HIV.
