This article is taking the push for screening even further than the last 1. The U.S. Preventative Task Force is moving for HIV testing to become an annual event, part of the most common aspects of a check-up.
As the article notes, it only takes 1 infected person to spread the virus. People who don't know they're + are far more apt to transmit the illness. Even if you can account for every aspect of your behavior, you can't for you partners'.
A + diagnosis is no longer a death sentence. It will most certainly change your life, but it doesn't mean certain demise. With all the access to testing these days there is no reason not get tested. You can know your status & take steps to either remain virus-free or keep from promoting the illness any further.
Cya...
