Advisory Meeting on Tenofovir/FTC for PrEP, and a Proposed “Niche” for its Use

HIV-serodiscordant couples who wish to have children are currently counseled to use sperm washing followed by assisted reproduction technologies (if the male partner is the infected one) or artificial insemination (if the female partner is the infected one).

Dr. Paul Sax enters the debate in his blog HIV and ID Observations.
