HIV testing
Our HIV test is designed to give you peace of mind. You don't need to go to a laboratory or expose yourself to embarrassing interactions.
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is a chronic disease that results from HIV infection. This virus attacks the immune system, weakening the body's defenses against infection. Without proper treatment, AIDS can lead to serious complications and death, but early diagnosis can prevent the progression of the disease and significantly improve the quality of life of the person affected.
