Dear PozziePinoy,

POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE
Hi Maroon.
Thank you for your email. Thank you for sharing your concerns.
Now let me answer all your questions.
1. The HIV test in RITM Satellite Clinic in Malate is FREE.
2. HIV can't be transmitted through sharing of bathroom, sharing of food and utensils, talking to people, sneezing. It can only be transmitted through unprotected sex, sharing of needles, exchange of blood, etc.
You can read more about these here:
3. When you get back to the Philippines, you can call me at 0916-286-2066.
I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.
Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
