Overheard some baby nursing students teaching each other about PrEP and it warmed my harm reductionist nurse heart ❤️

This is Alex Pretti.

Alex Pretti was an ICU nurse at the VA. As a former ICU nurse, I know Alex most likely saw many deaths. His chance at a peaceful death was stolen from him. His family was denied the gift of comforting him in his final moments on this earth.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

I tried this on twitter a few years ago and no one thought it was clever but I’m not giving up:

Internalized misogyny is a real bitch, huh?
