June 10, 2026

U=U is established science, yet many people living with HIV still don't hear the message clearly or consistently from healthcare providers. In this episode, host James Watson and physicians Dr. Gordon Arbess and Dr. Monica Edward with St. Michael’s Hospital, explore why U=U conversations aren't happening more often in clinical settings, how uncertainty and missed opportunities can affect care, and what role healthcare providers can play in reducing stigma. We also discuss what needs to change to make U=U a routine part of evidence-based HIV care.
