3️⃣ Repressive Gesetze zur #Sexarbeit und Kontrollen können Stigma, Angst vor Sanktionen und Misstrauen gegenüber Behörden verstärken. Dadurch wird der Zugang zu Angeboten der #HIV und STI-Prävention, Tests und Behandlung erschwert.

2️⃣ #Sexwork _er*innen in der EU und im EWR sind überproportional von #HIV und anderen STIs betroffen. Niedrigschwellige, vertrauliche und respektvolle Angebote in Prävention, Testung und Behandlung müssen ausgebaut werden. Die #Kriminalisierung von #Sexarbeit steht dem entgegen.

Das Europäische Zentrum für die Prävention und Kontrolle von Krankheiten #ECDC @ecdc.europa.eu hat einen Überblick über Präventions- und Testangebote zu #HIV und sexuell übertrangenen Infektionen für #Sexarbeit_ er*innen in der EU und dem Europäischen Wirtschaftsraum veröffentlicht.

While #HIV is no longer the death sentence it once was is remains nonly this report also tells us that it has not gone away. Remember that HIV, while manageable, is not curable.

"Everybody wants the redemption story." Alexandria, #AGirlLikeMe

Stories in books have endings, but for people living with #HIV walking through our journey, our story may rewrite itself many times. Diagnosis is not the end, and remembering who we are helps us fill the pages.
