Get a Free HIV Test Today at Walgreens
For a few more hours, you can get free HIV testing at nearby Walgreens in partnership with Greater Than AIDS on National HIV Testing Day.
Walgreens sites will offer free tests – no appointment required – until 7:00 pm tonight. They will also have information materials and on-site counselors who will talk about HIV prevention and treatment.
Greater Than AIDS highlights the importance of HIV testing as part of your daily health care:
Many Americans don’t get tested as often as advised. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), today one in seven people living with HIV in the United States does not know their status. Testing is an important first step in connecting people, regardless of status, to effective prevention and treatment strategies.
Not all Walgreens stores are participating in this event, so be sure to check availability here before traveling. And if you miss today’s free test, you can still find free or low-cost testing and treatment services near you.
