An estimated 1.1 million Americans are living with HIV/AIDS and the CDC says about 1 in 7 don't know their status. Testing is so important and thankfully we've seen great progress with the evolution of both HIV diagnostic technologies and the availability of effective treatment options. On HIV Testing Day 2019 we remember the clinical/medical side of things is only part of the HIV struggle: There remains much to do in the areas of justice, equality, and dealing with stigma. We end this episode with a wrap-up of Men's Health Month and a free download of the Health is Power toolkit to help organizations communicate positive sexual health messages to young African-American men.
