Today is World AIDS Day. I’ve lost a couple of friends to this horrible disease so I welcome any effort whose goal is to remind people how important it is to be tested and to understand what steps need to taken to remain disease free.
If you’re not sure about being testing, check with your local health department as they should provide the service free of charge. Testing is important because the earlier the virus is detected, the sooner treatment can begin and the longer the infected individual can be expected to survive.
