Why Should I Get Tested?
- HIV testing is very important. If you know your status then you can start receiving treatment and prevent passing diseases on to anyone else.
- Everyone is recommended to get tested for HIV at least once in their life.
- You may benefit from getting HIV testing frequently (every 3-6 months) if you are a man who has sex with men, are having unprotected sex with people of unknown HIV status or sharing needles to inject drugs.
What Can I Expect When I Get Tested?
- Our rapid HIV test can be used outside of the clinic and only takes fifteen minutes to complete.
- All we need from you is a little bit of information and a small finger poke.
