From this Saturday, INPPARES will make a free campaign HIV testing in all of its headquarters in Lima and the provinces, with the aim of allowing those who suspect of being infected with the virus to spread the virus.
This quick test will consist of a psychological consultation where they will inform the patient of the procedure to follow if the clinical test is positive, to confirm their suspicions, they will have to perform another analysis at the same time to be 100% sure.
"Get tested for HIV, follow life" is the name of the free campaign that aims to prevent the population from the effects of this disease, which has claimed the lives of millions of people around the world.
