A meeting with students on HIV and AIDS prevention was held at Baitursynuly University. Serik Kadron, a representative of the Kostanay Regional Center for the Prevention and Control of AIDS, told the students about HIV transmission routes, modern diagnostic and treatment methods, and safety measures.
The event brought together students from various faculties interested in maintaining their health and the health of others.
- There are about 4,000 patients diagnosed with HIV in Kostanay Oblast, - said Serik Kadron. - And most often they learn about the disease by chance - when they undergo a medical examination, prepare for surgery, or go to the clinic for another reason. Therefore, for your own peace of mind, it is better to take an HIV test once a year.
This can be done absolutely free of charge at the Kostanay Regional Center for the Prevention and Control of AIDS at the following address: Kostanay, Amangeldy St., 134.
