This year, MSFHR is delighted to co-fund three Reach awards in partnership with the BC-CfE. Based at Simon Fraser University, University of Victoria and University of British Columbia’s Stigma & Resilience Among Vulnerable Youth Centre, these awards are focused on supporting sexual health in women living with HIV and LGBTQ youth, and helping people living with HIV navigate the housing system in BC.
Gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM) represent over half of people living with HIV in Canada, so this community stands to benefit from using TasP¨ as a highly effective strategy for HIV prevention.

The BC-CfE Laboratory is streamlining reporting processes for certain tests in order to simplify distribution and record-keeping, and to ensure completeness of results. Beginning September 2, 2025, results for the ‘Resistance Analysis of HIV-1 Protease and Reverse Transcriptase’ (Protease-RT) and ‘HIV-1 Integrase Resistance Genotype’ tests will be combined into a single ‘HIV-1 Resistance Genotype Report’.
