At Home Hiv Test

I just heard on the news that there are going to be at home HIV test devices that people can use to see if they are HIV positive. One draw back is that the results may not be totally accurate and / or can cause suicides among the people taking the test. What do you think?

I don't think so. If the person wants to committ suicide they will do it regardless if the test is done at home or in hospital. I think it has its benefits because many more people will be able to test without feeling embarrased about it by going to a hospital and doing it, but I am bit concerned about how accurate the results will end up being.

Home-based kit to increase HIV testing. Researchers have found that 86 percent of heterosexuals who are at high risk for HIV would use a home-based test kit provided by mail and 99 percent would seek treatment based on a positive result. This self-administered alternative may lead a group whose high risk is under-recognized to treatment sooner. Source 4o.

This sounds like a good way to stop the spread of a disease that comes with a death sentence if left untreated. That's never a bad thing. I can see where the embarrassment factor would be taken out of this test if it's done at home.
