WHAI & CATIE present a Virtual Panel Discussion: Supporting women living with HIV through healthy pregnancies and infant-feeding
You’re invited to a virtual panel discussion titled “Supporting women living with HIV through healthy pregnancies and infant feeding” co-hosted by WHAI and CATIE.
Date: March 28th, 2024 from 1:00 – 3:00pm.
HIV treatment is a game changer for women living with HIV. With consistent, thoughtful treatment, women living with HIV can live long, healthy lives. They can get pregnant through condomless sex and have HIV-negative babies. For those who chose to breast / chest feed, effective HIV treatment greatly lowers the risk of transmission (but does not completely eliminate it).
During this webinar, you will learn about:
- The benefits of HIV treatment for pregnancy planning, pregnancy, and infant-feeding
- The updated Canadian guidelines on infant feeding in Canada in the context of HIV
- Practice-based implications for supporting women living with HIV who are considering pregnancy, are pregnant, or are considering infant-feeding options
Guest speakers will include:
Dr. Sarah Khan, Brittany Cameron and Silvana Fuentes
