HealthNet Hosts National HIV Testing Day Event on June 27
5/28/2024
HealthNet’s Sexual Health and Wellness team will host a National HIV Testing Day event on June 27 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event will be held in the Community Room at HealthNet People’s Health & Dental Center, 2340 E. 10th St. Free rapid HIV testing, along with a $50 gift card prize drawing, snacks and giveaways, will be offered. No appointment is needed. The confidential testing includes a finger prick with results available in about 5 minutes.
National HIV Testing Day is observed each year on June 27 to highlight the importance of HIV testing. About 1 in 8 people in the United States who have HIV do not know they have it. The only way to know for sure whether you have HIV is to get tested. This year's theme, “Level Up Your Self-Love – Check Your Status," encourages everyone to get tested to show that we value, respect, and have compassion for ourselves, by taking charge of our health and wellness.
