Thanks to the advances in HIV science over the last decades, people living with HIV who are on medication and maintain an undetectable amount of virus in their blood can lead a long, healthy life without the fear of passing HIV to their sexual partner. This is the powerful message behind “Undetectable = Untransmittable (U=U)”. In this episode of the Healthy Canadians podcast, host Megan Beahen speaks with Adrian Betts, Executive Director of the AIDS Committee of Durham Region, and Claudette Cardinal, Peer Indigenous Research Associate of the BC Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS, about how the life-changing science on Undetectable = Untransmittable has transformed what it means to live and love with HIV.
