The Positive Side

<http://www.catie.ca/en/positiveside/winter-2016?utm_source=ps&utm_medium=email&utm_content=en&utm_campaign=2016winter>

We are pleased to announce that the new issue of
*The Positive Side*
<http://www.catie.ca/en/positiveside/winter-2016?utm_source=ps&utm_medium=email&utm_content=en&utm_campaign=2016winter>
is now online!

The year 2016 marks 20 years since effective HIV meds first came on the
scene. To mark this milestone, we devote much of this issue to exploring
the lifesaving impacts of antiretroviral therapy (ART). How has treatment
transformed—and how does it continue to transform—what it means to live
with the virus? We hear from people living with HIV, as well as activists,
doctors and other healthcare providers.
