The Public Health Service (GGD) is launching the Amsterdam PrEP project (AMPrEP): a demonstration project regarding PrEP implementation for HIV prevention among gay men and transgender people in Amsterdam. PrEP is a pill containing HIV medication that prevents HIV infection and is for people who are not infected with HIV but may be at increased risk of becoming infected. Aim of this project is to investigate how many men would want to use PrEP, how consistently tablets are taken, how they experience using PrEP and whether PrEP use changes their use of condoms. This is the first time research into PrEP will be conducted in the Netherlands and the first time worldwide that participants in a pilot project are given a choice between daily PrEP or PrEP according to an established schedule before and after sex without a condom. Recent international research shows that PrEP is highly effective: new HIV infections decrease by 86%.

Mayors from around the world sign Paris Declaration to end the AIDS epidemic

On World AIDS Day, mayors meet in Paris as UNAIDS releases a new report on the huge potential of fast-tracking the AIDS response in cities

On World AIDS Day 2014, mayors from around the world came together in Paris, France, to sign a declaration to end the AIDS epidemic in their cities. In signing the 2014 Paris Declaration, the mayors commit to putting cities on the Fast-Track to ending the AIDS epidemic through a set of commitments. Those commitments include achieving the UNAIDS 90–90–90 targets, which will result in 90% of people living with HIV knowing their HIV status, 90% of people who know their HIV-positive status on antiretroviral treatment and 90% of people on treatment with suppressed viral loads, keeping them healthy and reducing the risk of HIV transmission.
