PrEP and PEP are expensive in Nigeria.
👇👇
•They are medications designed for HIV/AIDS prevention.
•PrEP stands for Pre-exposure prophylaxis: you will take them before having any ge***al meet and greet with a partner who might be a HIV suspect.
•PEP stands for Post-exposure prophylaxis: you will take this one if you have already done it with a suspected HIV carrier.
•If you have no access to these drugs or can not afford them but you are ignorantly engaging in casual opueh, you already know the risk as an adult.
•Condoms are not always enough as they can not guarantee 100% protection.
•Stick to your wife/husband or partner!
• An infected person will also find it harder to get the medications used for treatments as the foreign partners involved in subsidising their prices had pulled out earlier.
•Prevention is indeed better than cure at this stage.
Stay safe 🖐️
