CATIE’s World AIDS Day article: Ten things you may not know about HIV today
<http://www.catie.ca/en/news/ten-things-you-may-not-know-about-hiv-today?utm_source=tce&utm_medium=email&utm_content=en&utm_campaign=112614>
“If you blinked, you may have missed some of the ways HIV has changed. The
science of HIV is constantly evolving, and what we knew (or thought we
knew) just a few years ago is either incorrect, incomplete or in need of an
upgrade. Every year we learn more about the virus, and research keeps
giving us new tools to prevent, test and treat it.”
We invite you to share CATIE’s World AIDS Day article by posting it in your

<http://www.catie.ca/en/prevention-webinars?utm_source=tce&utm_medium=email&utm_content=en&utm_campaign=112614#prep>
Thursday, December 11, 2014, 1 p.m. ET
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP) is an HIV prevention strategy that
involves HIV-negative individuals taking antiretrovirals on an ongoing
basis to reduce their risk of HIV infection. While PrEP has not been
approved in Canada, it is available from healthcare providers who are
willing to prescribe it and some people in Canada are using it. This
webinar explores the science behind PrEP, where we are in terms of
implementation, and what frontline service providers can do to ensure PrEP
is implemented in a safe and effective way. Register
