The development of cell and gene therapies has the potential to revolutionize the treatment and provide a potential cure for various diseases. However, despite their transformative potential, there is a significant gap in patient access, with only a fraction of eligible patients currently receiving these life-changing therapies. To address this issue, it is crucial to dispel misconceptions and build unique and persuasive value narratives that promote wider adoption and understanding of these innovative therapies with a diverse group of stakeholders. This article explores the importance of removing misconceptions and changing the narrative surrounding cell and gene therapies.

R to @ECDC_EU: Throughout Europe, more than half of HIV diagnoses come too late.

R to @ECDC_EU: While reducing transmission of #HIV & eliminating new infections are critical components of ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2030, the goal will NOT BE REACHABLE without addressing the #stigma & discrimination across Europe and Central Asia.
