Walgreens stores across the US are offering free HIV testing today for National HIV Testing Day
Greaterthan.org/Walgreens.Walgreens says branches in “areas disproportionately impacted by HIV” are more likely to be offering the testing, along with counselors to provide information on HIV treatment. Most will offer mobile testing units in parking lots, with pharmacists and further information inside the store.Greater Than HIV is a public information initiative from the public health policy organization, KFF.“This unique community-led effort brings people together in a familiar setting to receive a free HIV test, get the latest on HIV prevention and treatment and connect with local services,” said Tina Hoff, senior vice president, KFF, in a press statement.“Our Greater Than HIV and Walgreens National HIV Community Partnership provides a great opportunity to help people know their HIV status and take action to protect their health.”Harry Webster is a gay pharmacist who has been working for Walgreens for over 20 years.
