> PrEP has some nasty side effects. Those who take it need to get their organ function checked every few months (I think just kidneys?).

Please don’t spread this FUD. The side effects are rare and reversible by stopping the medicine. The checks are also required to check for other STIs.

That doesn't mean they are not nasty or don't need be checked for. Better than HIV/AIDS for sure, but common enough that a vaccine could be better.
