HIV Transmission Does Not Stop After 50

September 26, 2019


Fifty-three percent of Floridians living with HIV are 50 or older, and that same age group represented 21 percent of new HIV diagnoses in 2018. Instead of being alarmed, be empowered. Take control of your health and know your HIV status.

Visit KnowYourHIVStatus.com to learn more about testing options in your area or to order a free in-home HIV testing kit mailed directly to the address of your choice—while supplies last. The test is easy to use and the results are available in 20 minutes or less. When you know your status, you can learn what to do next to stay healthy!
