Revisiting "Truvada Whore," Three Years Later

Revisiting "Truvada Whore," Three Years Later

n November 2012, writer David Duran penned a piece on Huffington Post challenging the rush to embrace PrEP as a tool to combat HIV/AIDS. In it, he expressed his concern that gay men would become “Truvada whores,” a term that quickly went viral.

Now, nearly three-and-a-half years later, David revisits his opinion on PrEP.

After a recent phone conversation with a good friend, I have come to realize that a lot has changed since I first wrote about PrEP. He was talking to me about a recent HIV scare (that wasn’t really a scare but more of a reminder) and ended the conversation with, “Oh, and I finally got my PrEP prescription filled.”
