I'm not hating.

Let's learn from it.

Right.

Let's learn from how they were able to get to nearly every white man that needed has it.

And those are some strategies that we have to implement as well.

I am not naive that the starting line is not the same.

And that was one of the reasons for the continued advocacy with Gilead about there's got to be a campaign.

Right.

When women are watching.

And this is actually a true story.

So Georgia still has an HIV hotline.

And I had someone to contact me from the hotline saying that they were getting these calls from women all across Georgia, rural communities, metro Atlanta.

They wanted to know one question and that was is PrEP for them?

And so they didn't know what was happening.

Like, why were, you know, all these women calling?

And so I said, oh, that's easy.

You know, day up at night, they watching Hulu.

It was a commercial about one, one medication for PrEP that says this medication is not for those assigned female at birth.

Right.

So but if you don't know anything about PrEP, then you would believe that that means that that's it.
