An STI is an infection passed from one person to another through sexual contact. HIV (or human immunodeficiency virus) is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system. Gone untreated, HIV can lead to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). PrimaryOne Health currently offers STI screenings – including for HIV.
PrEP, or pre-exposure prophylaxis, is a once-a-day pill taken to prevent individuals who do not currently have HIV from becoming infected. Taking PrEP on a daily basis has been shown to be highly effective in preventing HIV.

Hepatitis C (HCV) is a liver infection spread through contact with the blood of an infected person. Hep C can lead to chronic liver disease but is curable. If you are at risk, P1H clinical pharmacists are readily available to help manage your Hepatitis C infection.
