Despite progress in HIV response (now stalled from funding cuts!), stigma continues to devastate the lives of people with HIV, particularly those who face intersecting forms of stigma & discrimination. We need action now to stamp it out! #ZeroHIVStigmaDay

HIV diagnoses among women in England increased by 30% between 2022 & 2023, although testing fell. Women with HIV on effective treatment can expect a long life & not pass the virus on. Anyone can get HIV so get an HIV test, know your status & take control of your health. #HIVTestingWeek
