Since it's that time of year, here's a selection of some of my favorite articles I wrote in 2022.
My main focus is #HIV. Here, for @pozmagazine, a look at advances in antiretroviral treatment & prospects for a functional cure. 1/

For @aidsmap, a report from #AIDS2022 about a 5th person cured of #HIV after a stem cell transplant. (The 4th such case was reported earlier in the year at #CROI2022/#CROI22). 2/

I did a couple articles on #HIV vaccines, which remain elusive. But mRNA technology is advancing that effort & also showing promise for cancer vaccines. 3/

La detección de cambios precancerosos en las células anales y su tratamiento temprano reduce el riesgo de progresión a cáncer anal en personas que viven con el VIH. #CROI2022
Es la primera demostración de que la detección y el tratamiento reducen el riesgo de cáncer anal. Ensayo ANCHOR.
Al igual que el cáncer de cuello uterino, el cáncer anal es causado por el virus del papiloma humano (VPH), una de las infecciones de transmisión sexual más comunes.
A brilliant plenary at #CROI2022 by @mugecevik reviewing the global COVID epidemiology. 🧵for key points: global epidemic patterns mixed, the main difference in outcomes lies in vaccine coverage for > 60 yo; ⬆️ death rate in US and ⬆️ hospitalized during Omicron explained by that 
Factors driving transmission include host, virus, environment & structural; SARS-CoV-2 is here to stay; recovery is part of pandemic response; population health cannot be addressed in short term.
Final points made by @mugecevik in her talk: people are not the drivers of transmission, it’s their unmet needs; we need a systems approach in pandemic response & evidence synthesis is crucial for policymaking. Finally, thanks Muge for allowing me to share your slides!
