In 1984, a young boy named Ryan White was diagnosed with HIV from a contaminated blood transfusion. His fight for dignity and access to education in the face of discrimination became a turning point in the nation’s response to the HIV epidemic. From his legacy came the Ryan White CARE Act, which continues to provide life-saving support to thousands living with HIV today.
In this episode of Microbe Matters, we explore the evolution of HIV care and the vital role of the Ryan White programs. Host Tony Morrison is joined by Dr. Nupur Gupta, a leading physician at UPMC’s PACT Clinic, and Ella Kaplan, a dedicated social worker specializing in community outreach. Together, they discuss the interdisciplinary approach to HIV treatment, the importance of building trust with patients, and the ongoing efforts—both medical and community-driven—to end the HIV epidemic in Pennsylvania.
