Grateful to @BostonGlobe for elevating the urgent need to make #methadone - a lifesaving medication - available through doctors' offices and pharmacies. https://t.co/UJtZ6ldS4Y via

The current clinic system promotes stigma, reduces access.

Dr. Rawlins-Pilgrim, now @BHCHP, led this study as a resident in our HIV Pathway @BMCimRES @The_BMC after caring for a patient who had barriers to seeking #PrEP through his school's student health services:

Student Health Services are a key care provider for college & university students. In this study of New England schools led by Dr. Samantha Rawlins-Pilgrim 1/3 did not offer #PrEP, indicating a large missed opportunity for #HIV prevention: https://t.co/xobVctItlL
