[An Aids charity has won a
High Court battle to ensure
a "game-changing" preventative
HIV treatment can be funded by the NHS.
NHS England said it had received advice
that it does not have the legal power
to fund pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)
- a "highly effective" anti-retroviral drug
used to stop HIV from becoming
established in the event of transmission.
Instead, it said the drug - which
costs £400 per month for each patient - was
the responsibility of local councils,
which are in charge of funding
preventative health services.]


Only in England NHS
this Funding is not wanted by the NHS
they are due to Fight in Court in a Appeal.
