What a great start to #HIVTestingWeek!

BHIVA is delighted to see Sir Keir Starmer continue his commitment to getting the UK to zero new #HIV transmissions by taking an HIV test.

This makes him the first PM ever to do so publicly, which we hope will encourage others to do the same.

Just one finger prick is all it takes to check your #HIV status. It's that simple.

Once tested you can explore options to protect yourself from HIV, or start life saving treatment that means you cannot pass the virus on.

Either way, it all starts with a test.
