Tuesday’s lead article “University takes HIV precautions” contained incorrect information. The Northern Star reported that the DeKalb County Health Department provides a blood-free HIV test that uses cotton swabs in the genital area to obtain a sample for testing. The blood-free test is actually obtained by taking a swab of saliva from the client’s mouth. The test does not involve any type of genital exam, and the swab is not taken from the genital area as previously reported. For more information regarding the procedure, call 748-2472.
