The document states that women at high risk of HIV can continue to use all hormonal contraceptive methods without restriction, however it recommended a new clarification to be added to the Medical eligibility criteria for contraceptive use (MEC) which states, in part, “because of the inconclusive nature of the body of evidence on possible increased risk of HIV acquisition, women using progestogen-only contraception should be strongly advised to always yyse condoms, male or female, and other HIV preventive measures.”
Good day!
I hope this email finds you well. My name is Nancy, a radio journalist working with a community/learning radio station in Kakamega, Western Kenya and I run a weekly radio programme on HIV and AIDS in conjuction with the AIDS CONTROL UNIT at my place of work; 103.9 MMUST FM.
I have read widely about your activities, and I am most interested to further know what you do, other activities that you undertake here in Kenya, and if there’s a way that your organization can incorporate radio journalists in your team to help spread your agenda. Especially those that produce programs in tandem with your agenda.
May I ask, do you have a network of journalists across the region that are able to help with your agenda? My interest lies with the possibility that I might be able to generate news stories from activities you undertake or positive broadcast programs to our listener-ship and much more.
Awaiting a positive response from you.
Kind Regards,
Nancy Imali
