  • With the advent of U=U (Undetectable = Untransmittable) many discussions are being had around the topic of HIV transmission. One of the primary concerns is the reality of 'blips.' I wanted to see what the data shows surrounding this so I dug into some studies to share with you all.

    Great video!! It takes 2 to tango. So if the negative person is so concerned of getting HIV from a U person. Then surely it is also on them to take prep and ensure they don't go for protracted periods without their meds, which then effectively boils everything down to zero. We all take responsibility for our own health.

Third world countries don't have biktarvy, atripla, descovy etc. Does the study included those taking LTE (lamivudine, tenofivir, efavirenz) or other cocktails that are way behind from modern and more effective ARTs today? Thanks in advance

    • @stratovariusforever1724

    I have this hypothesis that blips signify depletion of the latent viral reservoirs.
    When these dormant cells start producing viral particles, there is a "blip" in the viral load. The reservoir cells get destroyed by the cytotoxic effects of viral replication, new reservoir cells would not be created as long as the individual is on ART, and over time, the viral repositories are depleted.

    • @dodgersims1271
      @dodgersims1271 3 роки тому

      If that is the case, (all) reservoirs would be depleted if the person has been on ART for over 20 years! That would state that the person becomes Negative after a certain amount of time. Where is the evidence of your hypothesis?

    The ISSUE if u can't even trust a person to disclose their HIV status, how can you trust they are taking their meds consistently and are in fact at zero viral load. I am ao sorry, but I have lost some love ones to the disease and there were issues of non-disclosure and unprotected sex operative. I know human nature so I have chosen to lay low before I get a halo. Many of my trusting friends are NO LONGER with us. You guys are blessed because it is now a manageable disease.

      Hi, thanks for bringing this up.
