I'll reiterate one more thing. This actually is one of my rare pieces of advice: If you don't know your status or your last HIV test was not recent, get tested. Testing is knowledge. Knowledge is power.
Our doctor's caseload is primarily middle-aged or older Anglo (I mean White, for those who didn't live in South Texas in their youth) gays and somewhat younger Blacks and Latinos, a few older, of any sexual orientation. The highest rate of new infections in the US is among minorities.
I suspect members of those groups might not be reading this Message Board that much, but it's where the need is greatest.
