Summary
This study tests whether offering rapid point-of-care testing for gonorrhea and chlamydia helps more teens get HIV testing and PrEP.

What this could lead to

What could go wrong
This is an early-stage, non-randomized study, so results may not apply to all clinics. The intervention is behavioral, not a drug, so impact may be modest.
