This month, we’re going to explore a significant set of recent changes to U.S. HIV clinical guidelines. These changes are momentous in and of themselves, but they also reveal an important ongoing shift in how we fundamentally approach the clinician-patient relationship, especially when it comes to pregnant and infant-feeding people who are living with HIV.     Joining us for this conversation are two people who have been deeply involved in these guideline changes: Lealah Pollock, M.D., and Ciarra (Ci Ci) Covin. Dr. Pollock is an associate professor of Family Community Medicine at the University of California-San Francisco School of Medicine, and she’s a member of the expert panel that recently updated the guidelines we discuss. Ci Ci Covin is an HIV advocate and mother of two who has been living with HIV since 2008, and she’s a program manager at The Well Project, a nonprofit organization devoted to informing and supporting women who are living with, or vulnerable to, HIV.     Read the transcript: https://www.thebodypro.com/article/future-hiv-care-podcast-15-breastfeeding-chestfeeding     This month’s episode is hosted by Myles Helfand.
