A regular sexual health tester has spoken out about the importance of getting tested this National HIV Testing Week.
Liam Newberry, who lives in Ormskirk, gets tested every two to three months through the NHS depending on how sexually active he has been. The 29-year-old is an advocate for everyone to know their status when it comes to STIs and HIV.
The Edge Hill University student spoke to the ECHO on behalf of Sahir House, Liverpool’s oldest LGBTQ+ charity, who are calling on the public to know their status as the virus “doesn’t discriminate against anyone”.
