Despite decades of progress, many myths still surround HIV—and they can stop people from getting tested or seeking treatment. Let’s set the record straight:
✔ HIV isn’t spread by hugging, sharing food, or mosquito bites. HIV is only transmitted through certain body fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breastmilk.
✔ Anyone can get HIV—regardless of age, gender, or lifestyle. It doesn’t discriminate. That’s why everyone should know their status.
âś” Early testing and treatment save lives. People living with HIV who start treatment early can live long, healthy lives with near-normal life expectancy.
✔ Testing is quick, confidential, and affordable. Knowing your status empowers you to take control of your health—and helps protect your loved ones.
Let’s fight misinformation together. End the stigma. Get the facts. And most importantly, get tested.
At Patient First, our confidential HIV screenings are performed by compassionate professionals in a private, judgment-free environment—because your health and peace of mind matter most.
