Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, with reference to the announcement by NHS England of 4 December 2016 on a large-scale clinical trial of pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention, whether the reference to 10,000 people over three years means 10,000 people for up to three years each.
This question was answered on 9th January 2017
The clinical trial protocol of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is not yet finalised and one of the areas the trial is intended to investigate is the duration of PrEP for those at highest risk.
