Have you heard of U = U?
Undetectable Equals Untransmittable: This means that someone who is living with HIV and taking medication, who has an undetectable viral load, cannot pass HIV on to their sexual partners. This movement has significantly contributed to reshaping perceptions about HIV.

'U=U' is inspired by @aa_bronson's 'AIDS'. Effective medications make HIV undetectable, and therefore untransmittable. ‘U=U’ is a confident declaration of a hopeful future.
