Jason Alvin shares his story

Robert & Brady are thrilled to be speaking with Jason Alvin about his diagnosis and his daily FB LIVE show which captures him taking his HIV medication. About Jason: My name is Jason Alvin, and since my diagnosis with HIV in 2015, I have become a vocal advocate spreading the good news about recent HIV developments such as #PrEP and #UequalsU to friends family and strangers through facebook.  I have been taking my HIV medication live on facebook every day for over 2 years.  The community that has grown  around the show has been a tremendous source of support through what for me has been a really difficult diagnosis.  I am a registered nurse and worked on an inpatient psychiatric unit for 12 years.  I am a mental health professional, but I am also a patient.  I am married and have 2 sons that are 8 and 7 years old.
