Treatment as Prevention: HAART expansion – a powerful strategy to reduce AIDS morbidity and mortality and HIV

Widespread availability of HAART has dramatically decreased AIDS-related diseases and death since 1996. Furthermore, HAART rapidly and effectively renders HIV undetectable in blood and genital secretions and this is associated with decreased risk of transmission. HAART is therefore the best and most cost-effective means to stop disease progression and death, as well as HIV transmission: the strategy has now been named “Treatment as Prevention” (TasP).

During the Canada Post strike, the following measures have been undertaken to minimize service disruption to BC-CfE clients and providers.

  • The BC-CfE Drug Treatment Program (DTP) will fax outgoing forms and documents to the provider’s office.  (DTP Contact Information: Phone 604-806-8515; FAX 604-806-9044)
  • St. Paul’s Hospital Ambulatory Pharmacy has transitioned to private courier for delivery of medications. (Contact Information: Phone 1-800-547-3622; FAX 604-806-8675)

During this time, we recommend that documents be faxed or couriered to our sites, versus utilization of regular mail service.
