World AIDS Day 2018

World AIDS Day 2018

UNAIDS - "On World AIDS Day 2018, HIV testing is being brought into the spotlight. And for good reason.

Why should I get tested?

Around the world, 37 million people are living with HIV, the highest number ever, yet a quarter do not know that they have the virus.

Knowing your HIV status has many advantages. It is an essential entry point to HIV treatment, prevention, care and support services. People who test positive for HIV should be linked immediately to antiretroviral therapy to keep them alive and well and, when viral load suppression is reached, prevent transmission of the virus."
