Effective HIV Testing Is More Expensive

I decided to blog on the news I posted in a comment to my August 2010 blog on the AIM Healthcare Foundation being the cheapest source for the best HIV test available, the PCRDNA HIV test.

Yes, it's official. Aim-med.org is gone. Until another organization like it crops up, another source I found for the PCR-DNA test for HIV, the only one I consider to be worth using, is at www.sexualhealth.com for the not so low price of $300.00 in NYC, NJ, and RI. Everywhere else in the country it's $200.00. The Aim-med.org price was around $100 for industry and around 200 for  non-industry.

When Do You Exchange STI Lab Test Results?

From a reader: "Do you have to do that with every one night stand? It's more or less instilled in me because that's what happens when you learn something for the first time. It's still not clear to me (asked around, read things) what the reasons behind that request were, and if it is "standard" proceedure or common sense. To my knowledge, this subject doesn't come up with the blog contributors on D&R when they are having sex. You recently mentioned it in your video podcast as a side remark."
