BARRING THE GATE AFTER THE HORSE HAS BOLTED:

June 27 is National HIV Testing Day (Health Central)

Experts at the CDC estimate that up to 280,000 Americans are infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, but do not know it -- potentially threatening their own health while encouraging the spread of infection to others.

That's why every year the agency joins hands with the National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA) to sponsor National HIV Testing Day, slated this year for Monday, June 27.


How about "National No Buggery or Intravenous Drug Use Day" instead?
