National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day 
In observance of National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day on Feb 7, Dr. Kevin Fenton, 
Director of CDC’s National Center for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention, provides 
information on HIV testing and the importance of getting educated about HIV/AIDS.

Transcript:

Make Feb 7, Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, the day you get educated about HIV, and 
a day when you talk to others, your family members, your friends, and your partners 
about HIV. If you have never had an HIV test, or had your last HIV test some time ago, 
do consider getting tested again. Knowledge is truly power. It is the power to protect. It is 
the power to educate. And it is the power to make a difference.  

You can learn more about Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day at www.cdc.gov/hiv . You 
can also get information on where to get an HIV test at www.hivtest.org. 
Now is your time to act.
