Thousands of Australians are now taking HIV Prep – either in demonstration studies or by purchasing the drug from overseas, but what if there was also another option – an antibiotic pill that could prevent STIs?  Ian Muchamore speaks to two people who were part of a panel debate at the HIV and AIDs Sexual Health Conference in Canberra on STI Prep;  Associate Professor David Templeton, who is clinical services manager at RPA Sexual Health in Sydney and Chris Williams from Prep Access Now .

This segment aired on The Informer on JOY 94.9 on 21st November 2017.
