HIV Screening Test Know Early, Protect Yourself and Your Loved Ones with Quick Results and Preventative Care
The sooner you know, the sooner you can protect yourself and those you love.
In an era where health is of utmost importance, HIV testing is no longer a scary subject but rather “the choice of those who care about their health.”
Many people are unaware that they are infected because HIV may not show symptoms in the early stages. However, it can unknowingly spread to others.
The HIV Screening Test is an important option that helps you know your health status early. If detected early, you can start treatment right away, reduce the chance of transmission, and have a good quality of life in the long run.
What is an HIV Screening Test?
The HIV Screening Test is an initial screening test to check if your body is infected with the HIV virus. It can be tested in different ways depending on the time after exposure, such as:
- Antibody Test – Detects antibodies that the body creates (ideal for 3 weeks or more after exposure).
- Antigen/Antibody Combo Test (4th Gen) – Provides faster results within 14 days after exposure.
- HIV RNA (NAT) – Directly detects the virus. Most accurate and used when fast results are needed.
How is HIV Tested at LINNA Clinic?
At LINNA Clinic, we offer private, safe, and non-judgmental HIV testing. You can choose the testing method most suitable for your needs, including:
- Rapid Test (Fingerstick) – Results within 15-30 minutes.
- 4th Gen Combo Test (Blood Test) – Highly accurate and ideal for people who have recently been exposed.
- HIV RNA Test (NAT) – Directly detects the virus, used when you need quick results after 7-10 days of exposure.
- After the test, a doctor or specialist will provide advice regardless of the result.
Why Get Tested?
- To know your health status, whether you are infected or not.
- If infected → Start antiretroviral treatment right away to manage the virus effectively.
