After a month's stop because of measures against the spread of Covid-19, the free testing and counseling for HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C at the Center for Sexual Health in the capital city of Sofia have been resumed.
Elena Birindzhieva, chairman of Health without Borders Association, told the BNR that about 6,000 people are tested for these infections annually. Particularly among HIV patients, anxiety is now absolutely understandable, as in most cases, they have a compromised immune system. According to Birindzhieva, if a person received treatment against HIV, there was nothing to worry about.
The association is in contact with three HIV-infected patients who are also infected with coronavirus and show very mild symptoms as one of the patients is a carrier of coronavirus without showing any symptoms at all.
