#AskTheHIVDoc: What is PrEP?

Great advice Doctor David boyyyyy 8/3/24.

Well explained

How long does HIV live inside a host body taking PrEP while the virus can't replicate? Does the immune system kill it off immediately?

I would like to know about the long term exposure effects of PrEP on the organs of the body especially the liver? Could you do a video or post me a link about this please?

Where does the 90% protection figure come from? Studies I've seen show that gay men who take PrEP every day are completely protected (100%).

This makes it sound like you can take it only when you are engaging in risky behavior (ie- taking the pill only on the days when you have sex with someone). The medication has to build up (and remain built up) in your system in order to provide its maximum benefits. This video also doesn't explain who may or may not actually be eligible to take the medicine.
