: FREE ANONYMOUS HIV TEST ALL DECEMBER

Lack of knowledge on HIV transmission and treatment availability, along with the stigma associated with HIV are major barriers to testing.

Voluntary testing rates must be increased to end HIV transmission. As such, AfA Singapore runs the Anonymous Testing Service (ATS) and Mobile Testing Service (MTS) to increase accessibility and destigmatise HIV testing. To encourage testing, AfA is offering free test for all this December for World AIDS Day.

**Free HIV test only applicable to HIV Gen 3 or 4 tests.
