    In the years before PREP and just had the triple cocktail, I had a friend that worked in operating rooms doing liver transplants. She talked about the damage Hepatitis does to a liver (and how we simply have no way to live without a healthy liver besides transplant). She told me she’d much rather have HIV than Hepatitis.

    And to your point, now we’re even have PREP. So something that was seen as a growing pandemic level death sentence is now a manageable and affordable routine. This is the wonderful power of modern medicine.
