National HIV Testing Day: Time to Get Into the Testing Habit

Tomorrow, June 27, is National HIV Testing Day. Nearly one in five people living with HIV don't even know it. So get tested. It can be scary but it's important to know your status--negative or positive--so you can best take care of your health.

“Despite decreases in HIV across Colorado, gay men still comprise an overwhelming majority of people diagnosed with HIV locally," says Mark Thrun, MD – Director HIV/STD Prevention and Control, Denver Public Health. "Denver Public Health, Tri-County Health Department, and Jefferson County Public Health recommend that gay men think about getting tested every six months through their primary care provider, with a home test, or through one of the low cost testing centers found on BeTested.CO. National HIV Testing Day is a fantastic time to start thinking about making testing a habit.”
