Rauch: “No reason to be ashamed of the test”
HIV tests are offered free of charge and anonymously by the AIDS organizations in Vienna, Vorarlberg, Tyrol, Salzburg, Carinthia, Styria and Upper Austria. In addition, tests can be carried out by general practitioners, and non-prescription self-tests in pharmacies cost around 30 euros. “It is important to know your status – for your own health, but also for the health of sexual partners. There is no reason to be ashamed of getting tested (…). Together we can stop chains of transmission and achieve our global goal of ending AIDS by 2030,” said Health Minister Johannes Rauch (Greens).
