The incidence of co-infection (having both infections at the same time) of HIV and Tuberculosis is high in some parts of the world. In Southern Africa these co-infections are frequently found. Because both HIV and Tuberculosis can be very damaging infections, but can both be treated effectively if the infections are discovered early, it is frequently advised to test for both these infections.
Better2Know is able to offer you combined HIV and TB testing that will give you the information you need to know if you are carrying either infection or if you are not. If you would like the combined HIV/TB test, please ask a member of our booking team, and we will make appropriate special arrangements for you.
