Summary

This study looks at whether a rapid fingerstick test that gives results in 10-20 minutes can help more people get screened for HIV, hepatitis C, and syphilis during mobile clinic visits. About 200 patients of the WVU Street Medicine team can choose the rapid test, a traditional blood draw, or no test. The goal is to see if faster testing increases screening rates and connects people to care sooner.
