12:24 pm
eliminate the needs when taken daily prep reduce the interaction by 90 percent in 20133 hundred and 32 san franciscans were null diagnosed with hiv nearly one percent a day yet two years after it was approved for the purposes of preventing hiv and more than 4 years the studies show it can be effective people are not using this is to prevent barriers 2, 3, 4 more blaze to have it prescribed and eliminating the cost of the use and making sure that but community members have the facts of using it as a 12:00 san francisco must do more i am proud of our city's history in fighting hiv and aids and honor those who have come before
12:25 pm
us my revving to accept hiv infections i'm committed to build upon the funding and working towards the spread of -- half a and aids i'm proud that today with the support of my colleagues my co-chairs supervisor mar supervisor kim supervisor avalos supervisor farrell we're taking a bold step in making prep available to all san francisco this is a supple that provides 3 hundred and 61 dollars to help patients get it including private insurance and medicaid and medi-cal and the assistance program with that funding san francisco is leading the way we've been a is any city on so many fronts sanctuary from hiv
12:26 pm
interaction i ask for your support. >> supervisor wiener. >> thank you. i support this appropriation and am proud to co-sponsor it i want to thank everyone that helped to move forward it forward we have a lot of work to do 33 years into this especially depg and although they've made great strides in terms of rugby the interactions in san francisco almost 3 hundred people continue to get it despite our incredible prevention we have numerous work to do 50 thousand people are becoming hiv and more per year worldwide this is an especially depg are still becoming positive
12:27 pm
and struggling with access care and people are still dying from hiv and aids we have to do everything it gratefully fight this epidemic and preparing is an important piece of the puzzle in terms he remembers of reducing infections and the risk of hiv by up to 99 percentage when taken daily a potentially revolutionary approach to preservation in combination with all our other preservation efforts like condemns so it is also important to look at the big picture in terms of how we eliminate once and for all this epidemic we've been working for a year as part of the getting to score consortium which is a
12:28 pm
collaboration of department of public health and you mean and other based organizations i'm a member as supervisor campos and this is consortium has as its charge the goal of figuring out how do we eliminate new infections prep is an important part of that effort but there are other parts as well we have to encourage people and educate people to get the evidence more frequently every 3 months we need people to know raw if they're positive and connect people to the environmental drugs so they can spruce their environmental loads because people that spruce them radio less likely to pass the disease so as we move forward with this supplemental it is important we have to keep in mind how it fits
12:29 pm
into the broad coalition as it relates in san francisco this is a step in the right direction in terms of addressing one of major barriers to prep access even for people who are aware of prep and even for people who are able to manage the stigma that surrounds prep unfortunately, we're trying to combat that people struggle to access prep the drugs are two expensive the co-pays are high and the co-assistance is not as high as it should be and people that do have the benefits that cover part or all of it sometimes struggle to access the benefits so investigating navigateors who help people through the process is important i'll say which was was first extraordinary it had a co-assistance that was removed
12:30 pm
from this measure and i think we also have to make sure we continue to punish our pharmaceutical companies to lower the prices of those drugs and the prep that we continue to make sure that people have access to every possible resource to help them afford the drug and help them with some of the very, very expensive co-pays i know we'll all work token tom nolan together to make sure we achieve that goal. >> thank you supervisor tang. >> thank you first of all, i want to acknowledge i am glad to see this supplemental went down if 8 hundred to $300 i want to highlight many of the grow efforts that the department of public health in san francisco has made for hiv preservation one of their core you functions they're the ad
