> And yet STD rates are skyrocketing in the US. I take Truvada but it’s used as an excuse in the gay commmunity to engage in unprotected sex. If anything the availability of Truvada is probably a leading cause of why STD rates in the gay community are increasing.

No, STD prevalence is dropping. STD diagnoses are increasing, because PrEP requires more regular STD testing, which people weren't doing before.

Please stop spreading the anti-PrEP propaganda touted by people like Michael Weinstein. It is actively damaging to public health.
