STI and HIV Tests in Launceston
When it comes to combatting harmful infections like HIV, early detection and intervention are the most important factors. Despite this, Tasmania has one of the lowest HIV testing rates in the country, particularly amongst gay men and men who have sex with men. At Better2Know, we aim to reverse this concerning trend. At our private STI testing facility in Launceston, you can get tested for HIV as early as ten days after potential exposure as part of our Early Detection Screen. HIV testing is available individually and is also included in many of our other screening options.
