Quest Diagnostics - 1050 River Oaks Dr
I was very surprised with my experience here. My appointment was made very quickly. I was seen in a very short period of time. My test results came back in a very timely manner. I was able to speak with a doctor soon after and was taking care of. I was very satisfied with the experience I had here. I definitely recommend using them for any issues you have or any questions you may have.

Brandon HIV Testing

Who should get tested for HIVs?

According to the CDC, everyone between the ages of 13 and 64 should get tested for HIV at least once as part of routine health care. It's particularly important for those who have had unprotected sex, shared injection drug equipment, or have been diagnosed with another sexually transmitted disease (STD) to get tested. Individuals with multiple sexual partners, particularly those who are not in a mutually monogamous relationship, should also consider regular testing.

Importance of getting tested

Getting tested for HIV is crucial for a number of reasons. First, it allows individuals to know their status and take steps to protect their own health and the health of their partners. Early detection of HIV can lead to early treatment, which can significantly improve long-term health outcomes and reduce the risk of transmission. According to the CDC, people who are aware they are HIV positive reduce their sexual risk behaviors, further limiting the spread of the virus.

HIV testing options in Brandon, MS:

Urgent care and walk-in clinics

Urgent care and walk-in clinics, such as the MEA Spillway Clinic in Brandon, offer HIV testing. These locations often provide same-day appointments, which can be booked through Solv’s website and mobile app.

Primary care providers

Primary care providers also offer HIV testing. If you have a regular doctor, they can test you for HIV as part of a standard check-up.

Free STD testing and community health centers

Community health centers often provide free or low-cost testing. The Family Medical Clinic in Crystal Springs, for instance, offers HIV testing services.

At-home testing

At-home HIV testing kits are also available. These kits allow you to take the test in the privacy of your own home and then send the sample to a lab for analysis.

Prevalence of HIVs in Brandon

While specific data for Brandon, MS is not readily available, the CDC reports that Mississippi has a high prevalence of HIV compared to other states. It's important for residents of Brandon and surrounding cities, such as Pearl, Flowood, Richland, Pelahatchie, and Jackson, to consider regular testing, particularly if they engage in high-risk behaviors.

Risk factors related to HIVs in Brandon

Risk factors for HIV in Brandon are similar to those in other parts of the country. These include unprotected sex, having multiple sexual partners, sharing injection drug equipment, and being diagnosed with another STD.

Other STDs in Brandon

In addition to HIV, other STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and hepatitis are also present in the Brandon area. Regular testing for all STDs is recommended for those at risk. Testing locations, such as Baptist Health Services in Flowood, offer comprehensive STD testing.

HIV Test FAQs

  • Who should get an HIV test?

    Everyone between the ages of 13 and 64 should take an HIV test at least once in their lives. Some people are more likely to get HIV and should be tested more regularly. Those who have had sex with an HIV-positive partner, those who inject drugs, sexually active gay men, and those who have unprotected sex are all included. You should get checked every 6-12 months if you have any of these risk factors.

  • How do they test for HIV?

    Antibodies created by your body in reaction to the virus are examined in HIV tests. A blood test or a sample of cells obtained from the inside of the cheek can be used to do this. After that, the sample is transported to a lab, where a technician will look for antibodies.

  • How long should I wait to get an HIV test?

    It can take a long time for your body to build enough antibodies for an HIV test to detect the illness if you become sick. It may take 3-12 weeks for your blood to contain adequate antibodies. Even if you have HIV, you could have a negative test result during this time.

  • How long will I have to wait for HIV test results in Brandon?

    Because the sample must be sent to a laboratory for investigation, most HIV test results might take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. On the other hand, some Brandon clinics or doctor's offices may offer rapid HIV testing, which can deliver a diagnosis in as little as 20 minutes. Rapid HIV testing involve a little sample of blood or fluid obtained from the mouth. You'll need a follow-up blood test to confirm the diagnosis if a fast test comes up positive.

  • How much does an HIV test cost?

    A variety of factors influence the cost of an HIV test, including the type of test you receive, the location where you are tested, and whether or not you have health insurance. HIV testing may be provided for free or at a low cost by some clinics or health authorities. If you're a college student, you might be able to get free HIV tests through your school.

  • Is HIV testing covered by my insurance?

    The majority of insurance coverage cover HIV testing. The Affordable Care Act mandates that all new health plans provide free HIV testing for those aged 15 to 65. If you have any doubts about what is covered under your individual health plan, you can always call your insurance company or go to their website.

  • Where can I get an HIV test in Brandon?

    Many Brandon health clinics, doctor's offices, and the health department offer HIV testing. Some pharmacies with on-site clinics may also be able to give HIV testing. Even though some clinics accept walk-in appointments, making an appointment ahead of time will save you time and ensure that you receive your test on the same day.

  • Can I get a same-day appointment for HIV testing?

    Yes, Solv offers same-day and next-day HIV testing appointments. We collaborate with thousands of healthcare providers across the country to make it easier for everyone to access the medical assistance they require quickly and conveniently.

  • Can I test myself for HIV at home?

    Although there are several home HIV tests available, not all of them are accurate or FDA-approved. For a home test, you'll need a swab from the inside of your mouth or a blood sample taken with a finger pricker. If you get a positive result on a home HIV test, you should see a doctor to confirm the diagnosis and start treatment.
