CDC HIV/AIDS Factsheet: CDC Releases Revised HIV Testing Recommendations in Health-Care Settings

CDC HIV/AIDS Factsheet: CDC Releases Revised HIV Testing Recommendations in Health-Care Settings: "Effective September 2006, CDC has revised its recommendations for HIV testing in health-care settings. The Revised Recommendations for HIV Testing of Adults, Adolescents, and Pregnant Women in Health-Care Settings aim to make HIV testing a routine part of medical care in addition to expanding the gains made in diagnosing HIV infection among pregnant women. The Recommendations replace CDC’s 1993 Recommendations for HIV Testing Services for Inpatients and Outpatients in Acute-Care Settings and they update portions of CDC’s 2001 Revised Guidelines for HIV Counseling, Testing, and Referral and Revised Recommendations for HIV Screening of Pregnant Women."
