Sexual Transmission of Hep C Among MSM @1PM HST

7:00 pm ET: Sexual Transmission of HCV Among MSM:

For men who have sex with men and for transgender women who have sex with men, acute or primary hepatitis C has been shown to be a sexually transmitted infection. Similarly, HCV reinfection has been shown to be sexually transmitted as well. It is of critical importance that we keep this in mind for our patients on PrEP to prevent HIV infection, as well as our patients living with HIV. In this presentation, Daniel S. Fierer explains the risks, the incidence, early diagnosis, and treatment strategies for both HCV primary infection and reinfection. CME and MOC are available. ---

8:00 pm ET: Update on Mpox and Preventing Future Outbreaks:

The explosion of mpox that caught everybody by surprise and most severely affected our immunodeficient patients has receded, but is not gone. It is important now that mpox be included in our pantheon of sexually transmitted infections and include necessary preventive immunization for our patients at risk moving forward.

CME and MOC are available. Moderated by Brianna L. Norton, DO, MPH
