There's an important advance in the fight against AIDS -- people are now able to buy an anonymous new HIV home testing and counseling service available in every state. This is momentous news for the millions of Americans who have not yet been tested for HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.The FDA has just approved Home Access(TM) and Home Access Express(TM), the first nationwide services that will allow people to collect a blood sample, access professional counseling 24-hours a day, seven days a week, and receive anonymous test results -- all within the privacy of their homes. Each test contains an anonymous code for identification. The user calls a toll-free number to pre-register and has the option to discuss questions and concerns with a professional counselor before even taking the test. Then people simply follow the directions to collect the sample.All samples are shipped to a certified laboratory that runs the same types of tests ordered by a doctor or clinic. results are available 24- hours a day, seven days a week with counselors to provide flexible, emotional support, and, if needed, help with partner notification and medical and social referrals.Nationwide, people can now call 1-800-HIV-test to order Home Access Express, the faster test, with results available in three business days. Deliveries will begin on or before august 1. People will be able to pick up Home Access(TM), with results available in one week, over-the-counter at pharmacies later this year. Less than 20 percent of American adults have been tested for the HIV virus. And according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, many of the estimated 1 million people in the U.S. infected with the virus have never been tested, hampering efforts to help stop the spread of this deadly disease. With this new test service, public officials are hopeful many more people will now get tested for HIV because it addresses two critical issues associated with HIV testing -- counseling (the National Center for Health Statistics estimates that many people who currently get tested for HIV don't receive sufficient counseling, nor do they return for their test results) and confidentiality -- thus offering an alternative to people who otherwise might not get tested.

The blood will be tested for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Early detection of HIV infections makes treatment easier.

Shot 07/01/2006. HIV TESTING.HIV city wide testing -- To counter its dubious distinction having the highest rate of new AIDS cases in the country, at 179.2 per 100,000 people, Washington DC launched a campaign this week urging every resident between the ages of 14 and 84 to be tested for HIV. The citywide campaign will involve an oral swab with results in 20 minutes. Organizers want the rapid test to become as common a part of any medical exam as blood-pressure monitoring or a cholesterol check, hoping the results will influence a person's sexual behavior and motivate getting treatment. The CDC is considering a recommendation encouraging doctors to offer HIV tests as a matter of course to patients ages 13 to 64.

SOUNDBITE: (English) Magic Johnson, Former National Basketball Association (NBA) player: "In our black and brown community there has always been problems or excuses in why people won't go to the doctor to get tested. Now we are taking all that away from them. You can do it in your own home, you don't have to worry about it and then the key is if you are HIV positive we are gonna send you, get you the right information from the hotline so there's a doctor, there's a healthcare provider that you can go to, who will make sure you know who that is in your own community." 10. Mid of OraQuick box STORYLINE The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first over-the-counter HIV test on Wednesday, allowing Americans to check themselves for the virus that causes AIDS in the privacy of their homes. Ervin "Magic" Johnson, the former NBA (National Basketball Association) Most Valuable Player and HIV/AIDS advocate, called OraQuick a huge milestone in the fight against HIV. Johnson, who is a paid spokesperson for the company, said that in the 21 years since he first announced that he was HIV positive, one of the biggest hurdles in the fight against HIV/AIDS has been getting people tested. "In the HIV and AIDS fight we needed an in-home kit. Because the stigma behind going to the doctor or to a HIV and AIDS clinic to get a shot, for some people - probably millions of people, they just didn't want to do it," said Johnson. "And so now we are going to take that fear of going to a clinic or a doctor away from them," he added. The OraQuick test detects the presence of HIV in saliva collected using a mouth swab. The test is designed to return a result within 20 to 40 minutes. Government officials estimate one-fifth, or about 240-thousand people, of the 1.2 (m) million HIV carriers in the US, are not aware that they are infected. Testing is one of the key means of slowing new infections, which have held steady at about 50-thousand per year for two decades. FDA officials said the test is aimed at people who might not otherwise get tested. Johnson said the test will especially help the African-American community where there is a stigma in getting tested. "In our black and brown community there has always been excuses in why people won't go to the doctor to get tested. Now we are taking all that away from them," said Johnson. "You can do it in your own home, you don't have to worry about it," he added. FDA stressed in its approval announcement that the test is not 100 per cent accurate. A trial showed the home test correctly detected HIV in those carrying the virus only 92 per cent of the time. That means the test could miss one person for every 12 HIV-infected people who use the kit. The test was accurate 99 per cent in ruling out HIV in patients not carrying the virus. That means the test would incorrectly identify one patient as having HIV for every five-thousand HIV-negative people tested.
