• Be safe. The best way to prevent HIV is to abstain from having sex. If you do have sex, use a new latex condom every time. Do not share needles or syringes. • Talk about it. Talk about sex and HIV with your partners. Find out when they were last tested for HIV and what their status was. Be clear that you will be having safer sex…or none at all. • Talk to your doctor. If you are sexually active, you should get tested for HIV at least once. Do not assume your doctor will ask you to be tested for HIV. • Spread the word. Thousands of Americans are getting HIV each year. Set an example by getting tested and spreading the word that others should do the same.
You have the power to help stop the spread of HIV. Avoid the HIV disinformation campaign of AIDs deniers like Peter Duesberg. Stay healthy, and stay informed.
