Located in Fairfax County, Huntington, VA, is a popular place due to its central location in the Washington metropolitan area. Even though Fairfax County isn't among the counties with the highest STD rates, HIV and other STDs are still a threat.
The Fairfax County Health Department registered a decline in new HIV diagnoses. The 90 HIV cases reported in 2020 sharply went down to 44 in 2020, but in 2021, they dramatically rose to 70.
A similar oscillatory pattern was observed in some STIs. For instance, Chlamydia infections increased from 3,747 in 2019 to 2,881 in 2020. But in 2021, the number had reached 3,199.
Likewise, early Syphilis infections were at 130 in 2019. In 2020, the cases dropped to 111 before soaring again to 120 in 2021.
Conversely, Gonorrhea cases increased steadily over the years. From 595 new infections in 2019 to 639 in 2020, this upward trend continued into 2021 with 733 cases.
To better withstand the STD/HIV pandemic, the Fairfax County Health Department is working to ensure public health facilities are equipped with a trained and prepared workforce as well as medical countermeasures. It's also working to adopt modern data systems to support testing, administration of vaccines, surveillance, and contact tracing.
In Huntington, VA, there are several places offering various STI services, including AllCare Family Medicine & Urgent Care - Alexandria, VA, Planned Parenthood Prince George’s County, and Mount Vernon District Office.
If you opt for free STD testing, remember that specific tests might be offered at a fee, and you might have to wait several days before receiving your results.
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.

Some STD testing clinics offer same-day walk-in options without an appointment. Below are nearby preferred locations that offer this option.

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.
