HIV Testing and Knowing Your Status
from Alive and Well STL · host RareGem Productions
African Americans have been disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS, and this disparity has grown deeper over time. Angela Clabon, CEO of Myrtle Davis Hilliard Comprehensive Health Centers, and Dale Wrigley, Director of Engagement & Advocacy with Saint Louis Effort for AIDS, encourage medical providers to make HIV testing a standard of care so that patients can know their status. They invite all people to get tested in order for treatment to begin early, especially since treatment has become more effective in recent years.
