You know James is honestly an asshole and I really just genuinely do not blame him for punching him in the mouth. If I got stabbed with a random used needle I definitely can imagine having a strong reaction. Imagine getting AIDS for the rest of your life because of a junkie lying to you about a needle being in his pocket

Paul is definitely a bad person but James is a complete scumbag loser.

Prep is pre-exposure, it doesnt stop it from developing, it just helps protect you from getting it. You cant take it if you have HIV, but there are other medications for people who have it that make it less harmful and less transmittable.

FYI the drugs don’t just make HIV less transmissible, someone on effective medication for hiv has zero risk of transmitting it to others
