🚨 The Lenacapavir Early Access Programme has closed to new patients. This life-saving #HIV treatment is now out of reach for those who need it most.

We urge NHS England & Gilead to act now. Access to Lenacapavir must be restored. Urgently.

Community organisations: speak up. Silence costs lives.

“This is a matter of life or death. #PEPFAR provides lifesaving antiretrovirals for more than 20 million people — and stopping its funding essentially stops their #HIV treatment. If that happens, people are going to die and HIV will resurge.”
