Our aim is to set an #HIVcure agenda for the next 5 years to ensure Africa & other regions with the greatest need are represented & included. Scientists, advocates, civil society, funders, policy makers & others have joined online or in person to ensure success. @GileadSciences
@Thumbi_Ndungu # SANTHE Director says, "We need to develop a durable, safe, effective, accessible, .affordable, and acceptable intervention that leads to ART-free suppression of #HIV (aka, a “cure”) in Africa now!" This was at our #HIVcure agenda setting meeting in Kigali today.
