10	10	3 represented in the General Assembly:
11	11	4 Section 1. Legislative findings. For more than 4 decades,
12	12	5 HIV/AIDS has ravaged communities across America and Illinois,
13	13	6 doubling down on the racial health disparities also laid bare
14	14	7 across the opioid epidemic, maternal and infant mortality
15	15	8 rates, COVID-19 mortality and morbidity rates, and the rising
16	16	9 rates of sexually transmitted infections (chlamydia,
17	17	10 gonorrhea, and syphilis).
18	18	11 According to the Centers for Disease Control and
19	19	12 Prevention (CDC), HIV transmission can be virtually eliminated
20	20	13 when linkage to HIV medications and medical care are widely
21	21	14 accessible. Treatment and prevention strategies such as
22	22	15 Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) and
23	23	16 Undetectable=Untransmittable (U=U) are time-tested,
24	24	17 science-based interventions that prevent new HIV diagnoses.
25	25	18 Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is a prevention strategy that
26	26	19 involves sexually active HIV-negative adults and adolescents
27	27	20 taking prescription medications to prevent HIV acquisition.
28	28	21 PrEP is 99% effective in preventing HIV when taken as
29	29	22 prescribed. U=U acknowledges the proven science that people
30	30	23 living with HIV who have an undetectable viral load pose no
31	31	24 chance of transmitting the virus sexually. However, access to
