Palm Beach County Fla. — The Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County (DOH-Palm Beach) invites the community to attend the HIV Testing Day on Thursday, June 27, 2024.

The event will be held from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the following location:

West Palm Beach Health Center
1150 45th St.
West Palm Beach, FL 33407

During the event, free rapid HIV testing, PrEP information, and giveaways will be available. No official identification or pre-registration is required. Walk-ins only.

Protect yourself. Get tested. Know your status. Learn what’s next.

Knowing your status is the first step toward effective HIV prevention and treatment. Individuals at risk of contracting HIV can reduce their risk for HIV by using appropriate prevention strategies, such as taking pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), using protection, and getting tested regularly. Contact a health care provider to find out if PrEP is recommended for you.

If you test positive for HIV, seeking HIV treatment is critical. Antiretroviral therapy can help people live longer, healthier lives. People living with HIV who take antiretroviral medication as prescribed and have an undetectable viral load cannot transmit HIV to their sexual partners. Both PrEP and HIV treatment medications are now available as pills and long-acting injectables.

DOH-Palm Beach provides routine HIV testing, PrEP, and other HIV-related services as well. For more information about the event, call 561-446-5551.
