CPC Partners with Mount Sinai for on-site STD Testing
In our effort to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic, the Chinese-American Planning Council (CPC) has once again taken steps forward to help the community by collaborating with Mount Sinai to expand free sexually transmitted disease (STD) testing. The STD testing will cover some of the STDs commonly caused by bacterial infection: Gonorrhea, Chlamydia and Syphilis.
The Chinese-American Planning Council and Mount Sinai Hospital will host their free HIV/STD testing on the first Monday of every month starting February 2015.
All of our services are free of charge and confidential. For more information about HIV/AIDS or to seek HIV test and STD test, please contact CPC HIV/AIDS Service at 646-613-8420/8369.
Many STDs don’t cause any symptoms that you would notice, so the only way to know for sure if you have been infected is to get tested. You can still get infected from having sex with someone who has no symptoms. Just like you, that person might not know he or she has been infected.
Some of the possible symptoms might include:
- Sores on your penis, vagina, rectum, or mouth
- Painful or burning sensation when urinating
- Abnormal discharge from your penis or vagina
- Lower abdomen pain (women)
- Pain and swelling in one or both testicles
Testing Dates: Monday, February 2nd, March 2nd, April 6th 2015
Testing Times: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Testing Site: CPC Community Services Center (165 Eldridge Street, New York, NY 10002)
Please call CPC HIV/AIDS Program for more information: 646-613-8428

測試目的:
有些患了性傳染病的人完全沒有病癥,因此他們不知道自己原來已經患病了。唯一可以確定你有沒有感染了的方法就是接受檢查。若你的性伴侶感染了性病(沒有病癥),而你和對方發生性行為就有機會被感染。
一些可能出現的癥狀可能包括﹕
- 在你的陰莖、陰道、直腸或口腔出現潰瘍
- 排尿時有疼痛或燒灼感
- 尿道流膿、白帶增多、異色異味
- 下腹部疼痛(女)
- 疼痛和腫脹在一個或兩個睾丸有疼痛和腫脹
