I Walk to celebrate that Undetectable equals Untransmittable

August 25, 2021

The evidence is in: If you are HIV+, take treatment, and maintain an undetectable viral load, you can have sex knowing that you won’t pass HIV to your sex partner. In short, when HIV is undetectable, it’s untransmittable.

The U=U campaign which was first developed by the Prevention Access Campaign, is about empowering people living with HIV. This message is one of freedom and hope, that dismantles HIV stigma on the personal, clinical, and community levels, and encourages people living with HIV to continue their treatment which improves personal and public health outcomes. It also strengthens advocacy efforts. The AIDS Network has been proud to be among the first Ontario-based endorsers of this ground-breaking message since 2017 and we continue our mission to provide education to people living with HIV as well as the general public about this incredible and important news!

The AIDS Network relies on the support of our friends and allies within the communities that we serve to deliver our most crucial programs and services. Show your support today and help us to continue our mission to respond to the impact of HIV. We imagine a world without new infection and long, healthy lives for people living with, affected by, and vulnerable to HIV.
