Lede paragraph from November 8, 2019, article in POZ online magazine:

"Gilead Sciences’ experimental capsid inhibitor antiretroviral (ARV), GS-6207, may require dosing only every six months. Additionally, research indicates that there is a very low likelihood that people with HIV will have preexisting resistance to the medication...."

For once I'm a little bit excited.

There's been other whispers about once a month injections, but  can't find how once a month visits to my Dr would fit with working full time.

Once every 6 months would be the bomb!

It would be great if this worked out and someday becomes available for us!
Wow a shot every 6 months is very very appealing!
We could almost forget that we have this ailment!  8)
IF it works out, it would probably take years n years for it to be available????
