PrEP prescription can make a positive difference in women who inject drugs
When taken daily, pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP, is a highly effective way to prevent HIV transmission, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now a new study shows that implementing PrEP distribution within a community-based syringe services program gets the medication into the hands of women who inject drugs a population disproportionately impacted by HIV.
The results, from researchers at Drexel University s Dornsife School of Public Health, Dornsife School of Public Health, were recently published in the
Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
In the first demonstration project among women who inject drugs, known as Project Sexual Health Equity (Project SHE), the team prescribed up to 24 weeks of daily PrEP, to 95 adult cisgender women those whose gender identity matches their sex assigned at birth. The study was based at the largest syringe services program in t

the natural gas storage report from the EIA for the week ending December 4th indicated that the quantity of natural gas held in underground storage in the US decreased by 91 billion cubic feet to 3,848 billion cubic feet by the end of the week, which left our gas supplies 309 billion cubic feet, or 8.7% higher than the 3,539 billion cubic feet that were in storage on December 4th of last year, and 260 billion cubic feet, or 7.2% above the five-year average of 3,588 billion cubic feet of natural gas that have been in storage as of the 4th of December in recent years..the 91 billion cubic feet that were drawn out of US natural gas storage this week was higher than the average forecast from an S&P Global Platts survey of analysts who expected a 78 billion cubic foot withdrawal, and was also much higher than the average withdrawal of 61 billion cubic feet of natural gas that are typically pulled out of natural gas storage during the same week over the past 5 years, and the 57 billion cub

I thought I’d look at some big states (New York, Florida, Texas, California) instead of the Midwest:
The big states all moving more-or-less in tandem now, with California sprinting ahead; perhaps spread was nationalized with colleges and universities opening and closing? The correlation seems to happen around 63 days ago (October 1).
