(June 26, 2019, Salisbury, MD) National HIV Testing Day is June 27. On this annual observance, we encourage people to get tested for HIV, know their status, and get into treatment right away if they have HIV. This year’s theme Doing It My Way, is a call to action that encourages people to get tested for HIV in a way that is comfortable for them. You can test at your health care provider’s office, at another testing site, or even at home. However you choose to do it, get tested and know your current HIV status.
About 1.1 million people in the United States have HIV, and 1 in 7 of them don’t know they have it. People with HIV need to get a diagnosis as soon as possible so they can get treatment. Taking HIV medicine as prescribed can keep them healthy and protect their partners. CDC recommends that everyone between the ages 13 and 64 get tested for HIV at least once as part of routine health care and those at high risk get tested at least once a year. Join us on June 27th to raise awareness about the importance of HIV testing and early diagnosis of HIV.

Oddly it's now a disease of minority heterosexuals and young gays that think it's treatable like Diabetes. Who want's Diabetes ? Aids is not even the half of it we now have other treatment resistant communicable STD's and with social media and hook up apps people are making ill informed and indulgent hook ups for WHAT ? A rush of a few endorphins and a lack luster fleeting orgasim and disease and another unwanted conception. Humans are filthy lol.
