What's that? Profilactic?
You can just take back the experimental vaccine and save some people.
Prep is an anti-hiv pill.
If you engage in practices likely to expose you to HIV you should use prep.
If you have pRep in your system and you are exposed to HIV there is a high likelihood that the pRep will destroy the HIV and prevent the infection from ever taking hold.
Of course, it won't do anything to protect you from the other potential negative consequences of risky behaviors that would expose you to HIV, but considering that it helps protect you from one of the worst potential outcomes it's essentially a godsend.
