The PrEP va**nal ring is a new HIV prevention method that has proven to be safe and effective. How does it work? 🤔

👉 This flexible ring can easily be inserted in the va**na without professional help
👉 It slowly releases antiretroviral drugs which protect you from HIV
👉 For maximum protection, it needs to be inserted at least 24 hours before penetrative va**nal s*x
👉 It doesn't need to be removed after s*x
👉 You will need to replace it for a new one after 28 days

If you're in Bulawayo and are interested in accessing the Dapivirine Ring aka Vaginal Ring visit City Health - COWDRY PARK CLINIC as soon as possible and ask to see the PangaePangaea Zimbabweyst Study Team to be assisted.

Did you know that expectant mothers living with HIV can reduce the risk of passing HIV to their child to almost zero? This can be done by taking your antiretroviral treatment correctly and following your doctor's advice on how to feed their baby.

This is why it is so important for all expectant mothers like Akudzwe to be tested for HIV during pregnancy. If you're pregnant an HIV test will protect your health and the health of your future baby.

Social Protection in Education: A strong social protection system prevents families from withdrawing children from school due to poverty.

When it is sufficiently shock-responsive it can quickly be scaled to increase access to education for all children.

Children can find it difficult to understand why they must take HIV medication every day.

Here are a few tips to help you support your child through this:

👉 Talk to your child about their treatment to help them accept it. Depending on your child’s age, you can decide how much detail to go into.

👉 Encourage your child to ask questions and let them know that they can always speak to you. Be prepared to answer any questions by learning more about how their treatment works.

👉 Remember that many other parents have had children with HIV. If you know other families affected by HIV, you could ask them for tips.

Taking PrEP while not knowing that you are HIV positive is bad for your health.

👉 PrEP has a small amount of antiretroviral treatment (ART) in it, which stops you from getting HIV when taken correctly. But if you already have HIV, taking PrEP could make you more likely to develop HIV drug resistance, which means ART stops working.

👉 Testing regularly while you take PrEP means that you will find out if you are HIV positive as soon as possible, so you can avoid developing HIV drug resistance. Taking PrEP as prescribed will prevent you from getting HIV.
