Vincentians are being offered an opportunity this week to know their HIV status, as Island-wide testing for HIV is carried out as part of activities for National HIV Testing Day, which was officially observed on Sunday, June 27th, 2021. 

HIV/AIDS Co-ordinator for Public Sector Entities, Winfield Tannis said that it is important that persons get tested.

He said that a week of activities is usually held annually to commemorate the day but adjustments had to be made because of the Covid 19 pandemic.
