The Epidemiology Bureau (EB) of DOH is mandated by Republic Act 8504 to collect information that will be used in planning activities to help stop the

ABOUT THE TEST


1. What is HIV testing?
An HIV test is a blood test. It will show if you have antibodies to HIV-- the virus that causes AIDS. A sample of blood will be taken from your arm. If the
first test (screening) is reactive, another test (confirmatory) will be done to make sure that the first test is confirmed to be positive. A positive test
means you have been infected with HIV, a negative test means you are probably not infected because it takes time for the body to produce antibodies.
If you think you have been exposed recently, you need to be re-tested after 6 weeks to make sure you are not infected.
2. Voluntary HIV testing
Taking an HIV test is voluntary. Under Republic Act 8504, you cannot be tested without your knowledge and consent. If you do not want to be tested,
you have the right to refuse the test.
3. Confidentiality of Test Results
Your test result is confidential. It will only be given to you personally.
