Na jaren van dalende hiv-cijfers ziet Nederland voor het eerst weer een duidelijke stijging: 444 nieuwe hiv-diagnoses in het afgelopen jaar, en naar schatting meer dan 1600 mensen die niet weten dat ze met hiv geïnfecteerd zijn. Dat meldt Stichting HIV Monitor in de jaarlijkse berichtgeving over de cijfers. De toename van het aantal infecties baart zorgprofessionals zorgen, omdat deze stijging zich volgens onderzoekers de komende jaren waarschijnlijk zal voortzetten. Wat is de oorzaak van deze stijging en hoe voorkomen we grotere stijgingen in de toekomst? In deze aflevering van BNR Beter spreekt presentator Nina van den Dungen met twee sleutelfiguren in de Nederlandse hiv-zorg en preventie: Kai Jonas, hoogleraar toegepaste sociale psychologie aan de Maastricht University en onderzoeker op het gebied van HIV-preventie Elske Hoornenborg, hoofd van het Centrum Seksuele Gezondheid bij de GGD Amsterdam en internist-infectioloog bij het Amsterdam UMC Samen duiden zij de nieuwe cijfers en bespreken ze waarom de stijging niet onverwacht komt. Ze leggen uit hoe verminderd condoomgebruik, minder voorlichting, en moeilijke toegang tot PrEP een rol spelen. Ook belichten ze de stijging GGD’s onder andere meer diagnoses bij jongeren, trans personen, sekswerkers, en ook vrouwen met een migratieachtergrond die zelf soms geen verhoogd risico vermoeden. Daarnaast gaat het gesprek in op de regionale verschillen: Amsterdam heeft een goed functionerend preventieprogramma, maar in andere delen van Nederland zijn drempels hoger — van huisartsen die PrEP liever niet voorschrijven tot beperkte campagnes binnen de doelgroep. Verder gaat het over nieuwe preventiemiddelen, zoals injecteerbare PrEP (al wel Europees goedgekeurd, nog niet beschikbaar in Nederland), manieren om stigma te bestrijden en innovatieve vormen van testen zoals mobiele health-checks. Wat is er nodig om de stijging van hiv-infecties te stoppen? En is een doel van nul nieuwe besmettingen in de nabije toekomst nog haalbaar? Je hoort het in deze aflevering van BNR Beter.

Episode 4937: The Arms Race Over AI; Polling Shows The Right Need A Wakeup Call

A cancer diagnosis changed everything. When Michael's wife began chemo, time took on a new meaning. The long-term financial plan suddenly felt secondary to the years they still had together. That wake-up call led Michael, then 57, to retire a full decade earlier than planned, trading more income for more life.In this conversation with James, Michael shares the mindset shift that made him walk away from a thriving career and a team he loved leading. He opens up about the guilt of leaving, the relief that followed, and the realization that a company replaces you faster than you think.They also explore how a lifetime of small, consistent choices (early saving, investing through dividend reinvestment plans, and living below his means) gave Michael the freedom to say yes when life demanded it most. Now, his days are wide open: hiking sections of the Appalachian Trail, rediscovering old hobbies, and savoring the quiet moments that used to rush by.It's an honest look at what happens when money finally becomes a tool for time, not the other way around.Want to be a guest on James' show to help others by sharing your story?

It can seem infuriating: Leftist demonstrators wantonly violate the law, only to face no or negligible consequences because the powers that be either support or refuse to oppose their disruptive tactics. But as a famous progressive politician was fond of saying, “The arc of history is long, but it bends toward justice.” Last month, a North Dakota jury awarded Energy Transfer, the company building the Dakota Access Pipeline, $667 million in justice, holding that Greenpeace USA had defamed the company during demonstrations against the pipeline. Joining us to discuss the protests, the verdict, and what it might mean for leftist activism going forward is James Meigs, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute.City Journal: Greenpeace Verdict Is a Wake-Up Call for Progressive NGOsWashington Post: Greenpeace ordered to pay Dakota Access Pipeline operator $667 million in case that could destroy the groupMartin Luther King, Jr.: Letter from a Birmingham JailCity Journal: Dismantle the “Environmental Justice” Juggernaut

I was prepared for the physical challenges of my first HYROX event. What I didn't expect was for it to reveal just how much emotional weight I'd been carrying. Somewhere between the training, the illness, the IV drips, and the intensity of race day, HYROX pulled up years of grief, loneliness, self-protection, and the quiet ache of doing life solo for far too long. The sudden 14-pound weight spike in just two weeks became the wake-up call I couldn't ignore — the physical proof of everything I'd been holding in. This event didn't just test my body. It cracked open everything I've been avoiding. It forced me to feel the pain I've suppressed… maybe even used fitness to outrun. And it made me face the ways I've kept people at a distance because it felt safer than risking disappointment. This is the real story of how HYROX became less about the competition and more about healing, trauma patterns, and emotional clarity. If you've ever pushed down your pain until it showed up in your body… If you've ever kept people at arm's length because disappointment hurts more than loneliness… If you've ever been confronted with the truth you've been avoiding... This episode is going to hit home. Sponsored by Hydralive
