    About one fourth of the one million U.S. residents currently living with HIV are unaware of their HIV infection. A recently published study which looked at routinely offering rapid HIV testing to persons seeking care in hospital emergency departments concluded that all health care facilities (i.e., emergency departments, primary care clinics, community clinics, hospitals in-patient facilities, and urgent care clinics) should offer HIV testing services to patients.
