Bruce Richman

Bruce is the founding executive director of Prevention Access Campaign which launched Undetectable = Untransmittable (U=U), a global community-driven movement with over 990 official partners in 100 countries sharing the revolutionary but largely unknown fact: people living with HIV on treatment with an undetectable viral load cannot transmit HIV to sexual partners.
In 2012, nine years after his diagnosis, Bruce learned U=U. After recognizing that people with HIV and the public were not being informed about this groundbreaking science, he joined with activists and researchers to create a consensus on the science and to ensure it reaches the people it was intended to benefit. U=U is based on the principle that all people with HIV have a right to accurate and meaningful information about their social, sexual, and reproductive health based on science not stigma.
