Currently, it is estimated that there are over 2700 people living with either HIV or AIDS in Pima County and approximately 100 new cases are reported each year. The demographic most likely to be infected with HIV are white males aged between 50 and 54.
The Sahuarita area also experiences over 5000 cases of chlamydia, nearly 800 cases of gonorrhea, and 53 cases of syphilis per ever 100,000 residents each year.
The increasing rates of HIV and STDs in Sahuarita make the town a high-risk area for STD contraction.
Incidences of HIV, AIDS, and STDs are more common than ever in Sahuarita and Pima County, which has led health officials to encourage all sexually active residents to seek out STD checks.
As incidences of HIV and STDs become more common in Sahuarita and Pima County, health officials have introduced initiatives including free HIV checks and educational programs to prevent the spread of disease.
If you think you are in need of an HIV or STD check there are a variety of public and private health clinics in Sahuarita that you can choose from. United Community Health Center (Sahuarita Heights Clinic), Pima County Health Department (Theresa Lee Public Health Center), and El Rio Health (Southwest Health Center) are options you can consider.
Some clinics offer free STD testing services that include HIV checks, but often these services have long waiting times and not everyone is eligible for free treatment due to income requirements.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.
