November 26, 2025

About 50 people were tested for HIV at Astana International Airport. The doctors of the HIV Infection Center conducted an express testing campaign for residents and guests of the capital, and also spoke about HIV prevention measures as part of the Global Campaign «From Challenges to Transformations in response to HIV.»

During the event, experts reminded about the basics of prevention, ways of transmission of the virus and stressed the importance of regular examinations. The participants were told that timely detection of infection allows them to start treatment at an early stage and maintain their quality of life.

Those interested actively engaged in the dialogue, asked questions about modern methods of diagnosis, treatment and common myths related to HIV. The doctors explained in detail which situations do not pose a risk, and reminded about the availability of free and confidential testing in the city.

As a result of the campaign, the airport's employees and passengers took advantage of the opportunity to undergo rapid HIV testing on the spot and receive expert advice.
