🎖️ Congratulations to @MagicJohnson on receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom!
Instead of hiding from the stigma associated with the HIV/AIDS crisis, Magic spoke up, fought against widespread hatred, and committed himself to educating people about #HIV and #AIDS.

#PrEP is highly effective at preventing HIV regardless of your relationship status, and it can be available to you at low or no cost.

Providers: This #WorldAIDSDay2024, tell all of your patients with HIV about U=U: getting and maintaining an undetectable viral load not only keeps them healthy, but it also prevents them from transmitting HIV through sex.
We can #StopHIVTogether.

Today we honor and recall the transgender folk lost to violence. Since last year’s Transgender Day of Remembrance, according to the @humanrightscam2, at least 36 trans folk were murdered in the U.S., many of whom were young and people of color. Half were Black trans women.
For #transdayofremembrance, I share the story of a life that was cut short. Red, as she was known, grew up in Chicago’s Lawndale neighborhood. “She was full of life, and you could feel her presence whenever she walked into a room,” one of her siblings said
