Headed to Rio for #AIDS2026 and already the buzz is about @iasociety's theme of "Rebuild" after Trump's brutal cuts to global health funding. #HIV rates are rising worldwide. Watch my coverage on @PosAware @pozmagazine and my site, My Fabulous Disease.

My friend Daniel G Garza took time to talk with me about @PosAware’s anti-stigma campaign, @A_Day_With_HIV. I’m glad he made a point of speaking directly to Spanish-language viewers, too. youtu.be/OaaOmOaOFNU

My building’s doorman asked how my day was. I said there’s news the #HIV prevention division of the #CDC will be eliminated. After explaining what the CDC is, I told him there are 1.2M people in the US w/HIV—including me—but 13% don’t know they have HIV. “That’s crazy,” he said.

Nearly 1 in 4 people who are living with HIV in the U.S. are women, according to the CDC. Congress is voting on over $700 million in cuts to HIV treatment and prevention. For #NWGHAAD, tell your representatives in Congress to #SaveHIVFunding: bit.ly/savehivfunding2025
