Abstract
In 2016, London became the third city in the world to achieve the United Nations 90:90:90 HIV target (90% of people living with HIV diagnosed, 90% of those diagnosed are on treatment and 90% of those on treatment have an undetectable viral load) attaining 90:97:97 (88:96:97 for England as a whole) (Public Health England, 2017). New HIV diagnoses among gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men have also fallen for the first time since the epidemic began 30 years ago (Public Health England, 2017). This remarkable progress is a result of a combination of interventions. This editorial outlines two of these which use antiretrovirals for the prevention of transmission and acquisition of HIV.
