Over 36.7 million people are living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) worldwide, with 1.1 million located in the United States. Of those in the U.S. living with HIV, 1 in 7 people show no symptoms and are unaware that they are infected with the virus.
HIV weakens the immune system and makes people more susceptible to infections, cancers, and other diseases, especially if the disease goes untreated.
HIV is a treatable chronic disease and people with HIV can live long, productive lives and can prevent transmission to others.
The CDC recommends that everyone between the ages of 13 and 64 get tested for HIV at least once as part of routine health care. Getting tested for HIV is the only way to know for certain whether or not you have it, so call HealthStreet and make an appointment to receive free HIV testing.
HealthStreet offers free HIV testing year-round, by appointment.
