PEP to the HIV rescue! |

2.3 million people live with an HIV diagnosis in Europe. The infection and the disease keep having a major impact on the wellbeing of the people affected by it.

We want to focus on three things:
- TESTING
- TREATING
- PREVENTING
and this animation - is the second one touching on the topic of prevention.

You may know a bit already about PrEP - the pill one takes daily or on demand, to reduce the risk of acquiring HIV.

But did you know there is also PEP - the post-exposure prophylaxis - that is used after one may have been exposed to the HIV virus.

Watch our animation and learn more about it.
