Who should get an HIV test?

Everyone between the ages of 13 and 64 should take an HIV test at least once in their lives. Some people are more likely to get HIV and should be tested more regularly. Those who have had sex with an HIV-positive partner, those who inject drugs, sexually active gay men, and those who have unprotected sex are all included. You should get checked every 6-12 months if you have any of these risk factors.

How do they test for HIV?

Antibodies created by your body in reaction to the virus are examined in HIV tests. A blood test or a sample of cells obtained from the inside of the cheek can be used to do this. After that, the sample is transported to a lab, where a technician will look for antibodies.

How long should I wait to get an HIV test?

It can take a long time for your body to build enough antibodies for an HIV test to detect the illness if you become sick. It may take 3-12 weeks for your blood to contain adequate antibodies. Even if you have HIV, you could have a negative test result during this time.

Emily and the entire staff at EmUrgentCare in Saugerties helped turn our nightmare of a day into one with a lighthearted ending. When my fiancé was badly bitten by a dog and needed 12 stitches in his chin, Emily was confident, kept us calm and stayed 1.5 hours past closing time to make sure we were taken care of. The staff here truly embody what it means to be in health care and put us all at ease on a very stressful day.
