There are nearly 9,000 people living with HIV in Riverside County, with around 300 per 100,000 people being newly diagnosed each year. Of this 9,000, an estimated 1,920 (per 100,000) live in Cathedral city, meaning over 21% of all people living with HIV in Riverside County live in Cathedral City.
Riverside County health officials have released data that indicates that the number of residents with HIV or aids is 51% higher than originally thought.
As Riverside County now has more accurate data regarding the number of residents with HIV, officials hope that funds for prevention, care, and HIV resources will increase. This will allow more people in Cathedral City to receive STD and HIV testing. It is also expected that this new information will allow the country to offer more free STD testing.
The Desert AIDS Project hopes that due to this new information and subsequent funding, they will be able to implement the 90-90-90 strategy, a strategy set forth by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS) to end the HIV and AIDS epidemic by 2020. These campaigns should encourage at-risk individuals to get regular HIV and STD checks.
There are a number of public testing centers in the Cathedral City area including Borrego Health (Centro Medico Cathedral City), Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest Incorporated (Rancho Mirage Family Planning Center), and Riverside County Family Care Centers (Palm Springs Family Care Center). There are also a number of private clinics available in the local area.
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.

Several at-home STD options and public testing locations can cost up to $250, with most on the higher end, depending on the brand and type of testing. Public testing fees also vary based on income and welfare eligibility.
With private testing, you may save money on a low-cost comprehensive 10-test panel that tests for the most common bacterial and viral STDs in the United States.
