<p>Where do Cornell students go to get (blood) tested for free and anonymously?</p>

2

<p>gannett usually has it i think.</p>

3

<p>if you are talking about HIV and other STD examinations…Gannett is no longer free and is not anonymous (but is confidential)…</p>

<p>there is a clinic run by Ithaca (or tompkins county) that offers free anonymous HIV testing…but is off campus…i think they offer oral and blood exams… </p>

<p>while gannett is not anonymous, you figure if you really do have HIV then you’ll have to tell a doctor sometime…it’s more of a mental thing than an actual policy problem…</p>

4

<p>Where is this free anonymous testing in Ithaca? What’s it called?
How much does Gannett charge?</p>

5

<p>you can visit the gannett website or call them for any concerns…</p>

<p>[Tompkins</a> County Health Department](<a href=“http://www.tompkins-co.org/health/std/index.htm]Tompkins”>http://www.tompkins-co.org/health/std/index.htm)</p>

<p>there’s a planned parenthood in ithaca too…</p>

7

<p>does gannett charge for the normal blood test-- like for cholesterol, triglycerides, etc. (i’m not asking about the hiv kind)
do you just call them for a blood test?</p>

8

<p>yes any lab work has a fee…</p>

<p>how much it is depends on your insurance plan…</p>
