treatment, and other harm reduction practices. Based on real cases, we will discuss key interventions for

While Chemsex is not a new phenomenon, the recent uptick in contaminated drug supply, COVID-19 retention in care challenges, and the promotion of geosocial networking apps have created new challenges for HIV care providers.
