Gay Men Fighting Aids, the UK's leading Gay Men’s HIV charity, have produced a new booklet to help gay men who have tested HIV negative to stay negative called ‘Tested Negative?’

The booklet provides both information and exercises that help men to take control of the sex that they have, and avoid the sex that is more risky than they want.

The booklet is now available to gay men in some gay bars and is being distributed by health trainers on the commerical scene and through GUM testing services in London. It can also be downloaded free of charge from GMFA’s website at www.gmfa.org.uk/staynegative

The ‘Tested Negative’ booklet includes information on HIV tests, HIV risk and what to do if it all goes wrong, as well as exercises that can help men to make the changes they need to keep themselves safe. The booklet is designed so that readers can pick and choose the information and exercises that they need.

‘Tested Negative’ was written by GMFA staff and volunteers, working with clinic staff in sexual health services throughout London, including St Mary’s, Bart’s, Royal Free and Chelsea and Westminster.
