What about HIV?

We do education about HIV, the risks of infection, and risk reduction. Clients who are concerned that symptoms they are experiencing might be caused by HIV should take a blood test for HIV. We recommend that all people who are sexually active or have other known risk factors take the blood test for HIV. You can get an HIV test at the Alternative Test Site (ATS) at the Berkeley Free Clinic on Sunday between 5:00 and 7:00 PM (drop in). This service is free, anonymous, and open to both men and women. We can provide information on other places to be tested. It is unfortunately beyond the resources of the GMHC and the Berkeley Free Clinic to manage HIV infection. We can provide you with referrals.
