HIV & Hep C Testing
The AIDS Project provides free HIV and Hep C testing in a safe and confidential atmosphere.
HIV Test
The OraQuick Rapid HIV Antibody test detects antibodies for HIV. This test collects and processes a sample of blood with a simple fingerstick, with results in just 20 minutes. While this antibody test is safe and very accurate, additional testing must be done to confirm a preliminary positive test result.
To schedule a test or for more information, contact Sue at 802 246-7147 or sue@apsvt.org

Hep C Test
The Oraquick Hepatitis C Rapid Antibody Test looks for antibodies to the Hep C virus. Most people will develop the antibodies in 12 weeks (3 months). Antibodies are chemicals released into the bloodstream when someone gets infected. This test collects and processes a sample of blood with a simple fingerstick, with results in just 20 minutes. A reactive rapid Hep C test should be followed by other tests from a healthcare provider to confirm active Hep C infection.
To reserve your HIV and/or Hep C testing time call Sue at 802 246-7147.
