Valencia County, where Los Lunas, NM, is a village, has experienced a steady increase in the HIV prevalence rate, over the past few years, from 63 per 100,000 individuals in 2015 to 71 in 2017. Since then, the rate remained relatively constant at 73 in 2018 and 2019 and 77 per 100,000 persons in 2020.

The incidence rate of Gonorrhea infections escalated to a high of 312 per 100,000 persons in 2018 from the previously reported rate of 147 in 2015, representing a 112.2% increase.
On the other hand, there was a fluctuation in the rate of Syphilis infections, doubling from 9 per 100,000 individuals in 2015 to 21 in the following year, before a significant decrease to 8 in 2017.
Sadly, there was a spike in the rate of infections to 22 in 2018, representing a 175% increase.
The STD and HIV Programs provide partner notification, case management, surveillance, and screening as well as health care provider education and statewide technical assistance, including in Los Lunas. The HIV program seeks funding from the Federal Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (Part B and ADAP) and State General Funds to improve primary medical care and support services for PLWHA and help reduce further spread of infections in the village.
Planned Parenthood - Albuquerque Surgical Center, Duke City Urgent Care, Presbyterian Hospital, and Kindred Hospital Albuquerque offer STD/HIV screening services to residents within the Los Lunas area.
You can also access free STD testing services at some local clinics in the village, but people will know why you’re there, and the doctor might not be available on-site or on the phone.
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.
