I reblogged this and then clicked the link and Iâm going to ask anyone who follows me to please reblog this version, because something EXTREMELY important is in the link:
Her attacker is HIV-positive and she sustained cuts during the attack. Sheâs currently on antiviral medication in the hope that immediate treatment will keep her from contracting a debilitating lifelong illness. Part of the reason she needs to raise so much money is the cost of these medicationsâantivirals (as opposed to antiretrovirals, which are âyou have it and weâre trying to mitigate it) are mostly experimental.
Just as an example to explain how expensive they are, a few years ago I had the flu and was prescribed the antiviral Tamiflu. It cost me $119âAND I HAD INSURANCE. And thatâs for a medication for a relatively straightforward viral infectionâimagine the cost for preventing HIV. (I know PrEP is well over $1000.)
This woman desperately needs help because this course of medication could save her life. The other reasons are important, Iâm not saying theyâre notâbut while HIV is not the death sentence it once was, you would MUCH rather not have it than have it.
