EnsHIVAIDSAwarenessDay is a national awareness campaign that takes place in the United States

The Centers for Disease Control recommends that anyone between the ages of 13 and 64 get an HIV test as part of a routine physical. The CDC recommends testing once a year and occasionally more often, depending on risk factors.

The day encourages a more open dialogue between partners as well. Improving knowledge of the disease and access to testing can help minimize risk.
