The number of residents in Crittenden County and West Memphis living with HIV is currently at nearly 600 per 100,000 people, this is more than double the national average. The most at-risk demographic for HIV contraction in West Memphis are black males who engage in male-to-male sexual contact or injection drug use.
It was also been reported that in 2015 there were over 850 new cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis in West Memphis, meaning the city was had the third-highest incidence of STDs in the nation.
These statistics indicate that sexually active individuals in West Memphis are at risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases.
As a result of the increasing numbers of sexually transmitted disease incidences, health officials in West Memphis and Crittenden County recommend that all sexually active and at-risk residents seek regular STD and HIV testing.
As a result of the growing prevalence of STDs and HIV in West Memphis, health officials have implemented disease-prevention campaigns to improve awareness of sexually transmitted infections in the hope of stopping the diseases spreading further.
Additionally, some health clinics may offer free STD testing to sexually active residents to stop infected individuals from spreading STDs. Although, not every clinic offers free STD checks and those that do often have long waiting times. Additionally, patients may have to be uninsured to receive state-funded treatment.
If you think you need an HIV or STD check, some local public clinics that you can consider include Sun Life Family Health Center (Florence Clinic) and Pinal County Public Health Services District (San Tan Valley Clinic).
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.
