IDPH Signs On In Support of the U = U Campaign

Congratulations and thank you to Eduardo Alvarado and IDPH for signing on to the U=U (Undetectable=Untransmittable) campaign at Wednesday’s U=U training in Chicago convened by CDPH! IDPH joins CDPH, AFC and over 500 organizations around the globe as supporters.

The U=U campaign aims to raise awareness of the fact that people with HIV whose viral load is undetectable for at least six months cannot transmit HIV sexually.

Please consider signing on your organization today! Organizations can sign on to the campaign here. You learn more about U=U here, including how you can get involved as an individual.
