Karen Fratti shares her honest and unapologetic story with journalist Mia Degraff, leveraging the platform of the world’s most read news site to educate about U=U, advocate access to treatment and care, and fight HIV stigma. Mia is also the first journalist to break the news in a mainstream publication that people with HIV on effective treatment do not transmit HIV, sourcing Prevention Access Campaign.
“If a person is undetectable and stays on treatment, they cannot pass it on to a partner. Roughly 30 percent of America’s 1.2 million people with HIV – including Karen – have reached an undetectable viral load which underscores the need for expanded access to testing, treatment, and care.”
