HepC is under-recognized in NL. We need improved testing access to link ppl with curative treatment. Pharmacy-based testing is under study - if you're interested, find a participating pharmacy near you at APPROACHstudy.ca. cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-4…

Four decades into the HIV response, inequalities persist for the most basic services like testing, treatment, and condoms, and even more so for new technologies. In the lead up to #WorldAIDSDay, let's unite to end the inequalities holding back the end of AIDS. Let's #Equalize!
