Policy changes were introduced on 21 June 2022 allowing those living with HIV to join and serve in the Armed Forces. Candidates or serving personnel must be stable on their treatment and have detectable viral loads within the specified parameters. The RAF has undertaken a detailed examination of the latest scientific evidence covering the HIV illness and medication effects within the context of the standards of aviation medical safety. This included input from a wide range of experts in military aviation medicine, HIV and occupational medicine specialists. The HIV policy for currently serving Aircrew and Controller roles has been approved and individuals who are HIV+ or taking PrEP will be assessed for medical fitness to fly in accordance with safety policy. Candidates who are HIV+ are currently considered unfit for service in Aircrew and Controller roles, aligned with current medical policy where medical conditions preclude entry.
