Anyone have any opinion on this topic just feel free to express ur opinion here.
Express it in any aspect u want but don't discriminate.(know what u can sayand what cannot say)

I do not see anything wrong with it unless you know you did something unhealthy in the past.

History has showed us that relying just on TRUST is not going to last you a long time. Take the test & show your spouse with a smile on your face that you are clean. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

yup.. do it to protect ur love one and stop the chain reaction afterward..

i saw the title i thought sharingan from naruto... lol

is this the test where husband n wife take b4 marriage?

yeah, it is.. but can always take the test anytime, right? just for personal record
why not, its for the sake of your love ones including the future son/girl

why not? i don't see any harm taking this test.

it's just a test. if u ever listen to mix fm, they do advice couples to take the test before marriage.

yes.. its better safe than sorry

ohya, what kind of test they will do??

HIV screening is just a simple blood test..
+1 for it!
better safe than sorry..
anyway, pregnant mothers are also screened for HIV too..

For the sake of your future generation, it's worthy.
Sometimes it's not only about multiple sex partners or needle sharing, you never know.

As for me...Yes, should take the HIV test to protect yourself, your spouse & your future genertaions

It's simple. just one prick on the finger (of the needle) and wait for a few minutes and then you'll get the result.

off course before that you'll have to listen to the doc talking about sex/safe sex/masturbation makes you blind etc..listen carefully during this time because some facts are really really surprising to me, like more heterosexual female became infected these days.

i took mine a few mths ago. last one was soooo loongg ago. I'm basically not getting any due to to lack of social life and no effort to hook up, but still, i wanna know my result. and i did some things with furry things that im not proud of back in 1998.

take the test and always use rubber dear friends.

i think it would be damn safe to do it because if u love your partner, then u should do and tell them the truth..
anyway, HIV is not anything that we should be scared of, it is the way human beings look at you.
that's why discrimination towards ppl with HIV is a big NO NO

a MUST! better save than sorry. a lot people said it was against their will/privacy.
if you lead a healthy and clean lifestyle, why the big deal?

It's better be safe than sorry. You wouldn't want your innocent kids to have HIV+

Agreed.
Better be safe for the sake of the future generations.

we shud do it...

what if the resut is +.... they just "menghitung hari"????

If "+", then can take precaution and try ways to extend their life. not just "Menghitung hari". Life is so meaningful. Even if you are detected positive, doesn't mean your life ends now. It might be a time limit for your to do more good to others, make the world a better place by helping less fortunate. There are more kids starving in Africa than we getting HIV AIDS in this country. You life may end 10-15 years but for those poor kids, they cant even stay alive for 10-15 days. Cherish life my friends.

yup, really agree...but do see my reply on HIV and the testing for HIV :

Added on June 22, 2009, 10:00 pmoh yankeemama, what a lovely reply you have there....

it's so strange, how come since you supported the HIV Testing, nobody ever claim the prize ? Prize for what ?

http://www.heallondon.org/index.php?option...id=51&Itemid=56

yeah, strange, not even the modern medical science you know of, up to now as we speak I wonder if those others who supports it REALLY knows about what is HIV ?

Remember, using FEAR to make people go for HIV TESTING means something isnt right about that testing...I can see a lot of people inside here are fearful of "HIV" which is natural and good, but FEARING something that is QUESTIONABLE.

Aikss, but many people died of AIDS, I see the statistics in the media, I heard from my friends,...is it the truth ?

In 'Tests for HIV are Highly Inaccurate', Dr. Roberto Giraldo wrote:

"Some of the conditions that cause false positives on the so-called 'AIDS test' are: past or present infection with a variety of bacteria, parasites, viruses, and fungi including tuberculosis, malaria, leishmaniasis, influenza, the common cold, leprosy and a history of sexually transmitted diseases; the presence of polyspecific antibodies, hypergammaglobulinemias, the presence of auto-antibodies against a variety of cells and tissues, vaccinations, and the administration of gamma globulins or immunoglobulins; the presence of auto-immune diseases like erythematous systemic lupus, sclerodermia, dermatomyositis and rheumatoid arthritis; the existence of pregnancy and multiparity; a history of rectal insemination; addiction to recreational drugs; several kidney diseases, renal failure and hemodialysis; a history of organ transplantation; presence of a variety of tumors and cancer chemotherapy; many liver diseases including alcoholic liver disease; hemophilia, blood transfusions and the administration of coagulation factor; and even the simple condition of aging, to mention a few of them.

It is interesting to note that all of these conditions that cause the 'HIV tests' to react positive in the absence of HIV, are conditions which are present with varied distribution and concentration in all of the conventionally recognized AIDS risk groups in the developed countries, as well as in the vast majority of inhabitants of the underdeveloped world. This means that in all probability many drug users [including mothers], certain gay males, and some haemophiliacs in the developed countries, as well as the vast majority of inhabitants in most countries of Africa, Asia, South America and the Caribbean, who have positive reactions to the tests for HIV, may very well do so due to conditions other than being infected with HIV…There is no justification for the fact that both patients and the general public have had all of the preceding facts withheld from them. Without the merits and demerits of the tests for HIV, people cannot make informed decisions." (Being 'HIV-positive' does not mean that a person is infected with 'HIV'; Tests for HIV are Highly Inaccurate, Dr. Roberto Giraldo).

Jadi, mengikut pendapat anda, patutkah ujian saringan HIV diwajibkan ?
95% setakat sekarang mengesahkan bahawa Ujian HIV akan membawa kebahagiaan kepada semua pihak, tanpa was-was, tanpa mengetahui apakah sebenarnya yang disukat dalam ujian ini...

Yes, what you say is definitely true. Beeb surf some HIV pages via google after read this thread.
Nowadays, there is pretty much method to control HIV although it cant be cured.
The test is really important , i support it!
