How PrEP, the pill to prevent HIV, may be fueling a rise in other STDs

How PrEP, the pill to prevent HIV, may be fueling a rise in other STDs .    PrEP, some called it a “party drug.” “Truvada Whore”

Boris, the college student in New York, told me about his experience using hookup apps like Grindr while on PrEP. He said that most people don’t seem to have hard and fast rules about condom use, and people were generally willing to use a condom if their partner wanted it. But he did say that he thinks that PrEP allows people to have more condomless sex, and even amongst his friend group, he noticed people who have started having more condomless sex while on PrEP.
