Researchers, healthcare providers and policy makers working in the fields of HIV prevention. Professional/activist/academic organisations.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a drug taken by HIV-negative people before and after sex that reduces the risk of getting HIV. This book demonstrates that the PrEP journey is infused with paradoxes and argues for a more social and relational approach to public health.
