如何诊断艾滋病？- HIV抗体检测 3

在医生的诊所能够私密地得到HIV抗体检测，在许多国家和城市里，这种检测在各个检测点是匿名的。去做检测者，在检测之前和之后应该得到专业的咨询。万一检测结果为阳性，他们也应该协助医学研究留存适当的统计资料。为了达到健康照护的目的，只有在知道病毒是如何被传播的，检测的结果才是有目的性的。HIV抗体阳性者因此应该尽量回忆感染是如何发生的。这使医生能够填报一份适当的和保密的（甚至也常常是匿名的）调查问卷，就象下面显示的这样的问卷。（请注意：为了不给答卷者钉上某种身份标签并由此被歧视，表格回避诸如“同性恋”、“异性恋”和“双性恋”等措辞。）（在那些卖淫嫖娼非法的国家，恐怕还需要回避“妓女”和“嫖客”这样的措辞，不然，答卷者非常有顾虑，因而影响信息的真实性——译者注。）

How is it diagnosed? - HIV Antibody Test 3

HIV antibody tests can be taken confidentially at a doctor’s office, and in many countries and cities the tests can also be taken anonymously at various testing sites. Before and after such a test, people should receive competent counseling. In case of a positive test result, they should also help medical research to keep proper statistics. For health care purposes, a test result is meaningful only as long as one knows how the virus was transmitted. The person testing positive should therefore try to remember how the infection could have occurred. This will enable the physician to fill out an appropriate, confidential (very often even anonymous) questionnaire such as the one following here. (Please note, that the form avoids terms like “homosexual”, “heterosexual”, “bisexual” in order not to stereotype the respondent and thus to prejudge the case.)
