Brazil: good to know
- PEP in this country. A Belo Horizonte poster from the UFMG medical school explains the city's PEP routes: after consensual sex, adults and adolescents from 14 go to a specialised infectious-diseases service (SAE) on weekdays from 7:00 to 18:00 — CTR-DIP Orestes Diniz, CTA-SAE Sagrada Família, URS Centro-Sul, Hospital Eduardo de Menezes or Unifenas — and to a UPA at night, at weekends and on public holidays. After sexual violence, care is available 24 hours a day. PEP must start within 72 hours, and any SUS-BH health service can do the first assessment.Published by Faculdade de Medicina da UFMG· 22 Sep 2026
