To some activists, the administration's decision was a painful reminder of the early days of the epidemic, when H.I.V. was neglected as a public health crisis. "It just seems petty and hostile, frankly," said Peter Staley, a longtime activist and co-founder of PrEP4All, a nonprofit that aims to broaden access to prevention options for H.I.V. "It just felt very reminiscent of the Reagan administration," Mr. Staley said. Mark Pocan, Democrat of Wisconsin, the representative who leads the Congressional H.I.V./AIDS Caucus, said the administration's refusal to participate in World AIDS Day was "shameful and dangerous." “Silence is not neutrality; it is harm,” he said in an emailed statement. “I'm calling on the administration to immediately reverse this decision and recommit our fight against H.I.V./AIDS." World AIDS Day is when the State Department sends data to Congress from the President's Emergency Fund for AIDS Relief, known as PEPFAR, which provides money for H.I.V. programs worldwide. The program's budget was sharply cut back earlier this year, and the administration is reported to be planning to end it. It's unclear whether the department still plans to send the data, as it is mandated to do, but on a different day. The department did not respond to questions about whether that was the case. "We have been waiting for those data for a year," said Emily Bass, a public health expert who first reported the administration's decision not to commemorate the day in her Substack column, "To End a Plague ... Again." "It's unclear whether we will see them, and they're really important, because this is the year in which all of these disruptions to PEPFAR happened," Ms. Bass said. She wrote in the Substack post that "World AIDS Day in Uganda, where I've reported for twenty five years, means outdoor tents covering white plastic chairs, scratchy sound systems playing Shania Twain, luke warm sodas in glass bottles, and American and Ugandan counterparts in the HIV fight affirming the work done and what's to come." The State Department's message lost nuance as it moved through government health agencies. An email that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sent to its country offices repeated the bans, but left out that employees could still talk about the work and the State Department's characterization of H.I.V. as a dangerous disease. The White House did not respond to questions about the rationale for omitting World AIDS Day, but a senior administration official with knowledge of the matter noted that the observance of the day was started by the World Health Organization. On his first day in office, Mr. Trump signed an executive order withdrawing the United States from the W.H.O., the official pointed out. ACT-UP STAMP. ACT-UP! FIGHT BACK! FIGHT AIDS

Jeremiah Johnson, dir of PrEP4All: “You don’t really appreciate just how protected you are, so long as you have the infrastructure there...We don’t want to learn the hard way what happens when you take that away.” Trump, RFK Jr, & MAHA are literally destroying public health infrastructure in the US.

"White House has proposed shutting down HIV prevention and surveillance at the CDC."

House Republicans' "proposal would eliminate the federal program [..] that has strived to [..] reduce new HIV infections."

"[A]lso want to axe core parts of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program."

“An Oct. 20 email sent by a [CVS Caremark] chief medical officer to PrEP4All was explicit in stating that the company believes Yeztugo is overpriced and this is a hurdle to coverage.”

Sure, we need implementation science, but, just as much, we need a commercial determinants lens on PrEP uptake.

Taking PrEF isn’t just about personal health, it’s a moral obligation for cishet people. Your privilege shields you from the epidemics worst impact, use that safety to disrupt tranmsission chains and protect vulnerable communities. It’s the bare minimum. #PrEP4All #SolidarityNotStigma
