HIV diagnosis for 15 men waiting for drug on NHS At least 15 people in England have tested HIV positive while waiting to get a place on a trial for a pill which prevents the disease.
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (Prep) is a daily tablet which can stop a person from getting HIV.
England is the only place in the UK where places on a trial to access the drug through the NHS are restricted.
The Department of Health said plans are under way for "routine commissioning" when the trial ends next year. BBC News
