NLAAD

October 15 is National Latinx HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, and this year’s theme seeks to answer an important question: “Should you get tested for HIV? Yes!” Marked each year since 2003, #NLAAD promotes effective ways to prevent, treat, and stop the spread of HIV among Latinos.
This year’s focus is to promote HIV testing. An estimated 170,000 people in the United States are living with HIV and unaware of their status. This gap in diagnosis delays access to life-saving treatment and increases the risk of unknowingly transmitting the virus. At Chase Brexton, we offer free, fast, confidential HIV testing at each of our centers daily – learn more at www.chasebrexton.org/POWER and www.chasebrexton.org/sexual health
