Simon Kirby, MP for Brighton Kemptown and Peacehaven, took an HIV test this morning at Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) in Brighton as part of National HIV testing week.
Mr Kirby said: “I am delighted, as always, to support National HIV testing week and THT in their efforts to increase HIV testing in Brighton. There are still far too many people undiagnosed with the virus, meaning they are not able to access effective treatment to live as long as anyone else.
“Having been the Vice Chair of the HIV/AIDS All Party Parliamentary Group I have long taken an interest in HIV/AIDS related issues and the importance of raising awareness of these.”
Mr Kirby also took an HIV test earlier in the week in Parliament as part of the Halve It campaign.
