Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system, specifically targeting cells that help fight infections. If left untreated, HIV can weaken the immune system over time and progress to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). HIV is primarily transmitted through unprotected sexual contact, sharing needles, or contact with infected blood. With proper medical care and early diagnosis, people living with HIV can live long, healthy, and productive lives.
Many people with HIV may not experience symptoms in the early stages, which is why routine testing is essential. Some individuals may experience flu-like symptoms shortly after exposure, including fever, fatigue, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, or rash. Because symptoms can be mild or go unnoticed, regular HIV screening is one of the most effective ways to protect your health and prevent transmission. Early detection allows individuals to begin treatment sooner and maintain a stronger immune system.
Our clinic offers confidential HIV testing, prevention education, and supportive care in a welcoming and judgment-free environment. We are committed to helping individuals understand their health status, access treatment options, and receive the support they need every step of the way. With advancements in treatment, including antiretroviral therapy (ART), individuals living with HIV can effectively manage the virus and maintain an undetectable viral load, greatly reducing the risk of transmission.
