HIV/STD Testing
Does anyone know where to get an HIV test in Beijing at a foreign-based clinic or hospital that is not too expensive? Do they have the rapid test? Would any of them have the RNA test that you can take as little as 2 weeks after possible exposure? Does anyone know the cost?
Are there any specialty std/hiv clinics in Beijing that have English-speaking staff?
Thanks!

You can check this in most private hospital. However, the hospital would give the report to the local police but not you, if you had HIV positive.

Private hospitals offer the test but it will definitely be expensive. The Chinese CDC offers free testing but as far as I know they don't have English-speaking staff.

I suggest get yourself tested ASAP if you suspect that you've been exposed, even if it's expensive. This is for your own good.

An HIV test is 50RMB at Jingcheng Skin Disease Hospital and Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital but more for English consulation.
A friend of mine saw a foreign doctor at The Vista Clinic when he got the clap. I think it was 1000RMB for consulation and antibiotics. That right, Sciency?

Do you know if the Jingcheng Skin Disease or Sino-Japanese hospital does the rapid oral test? Does the Jingcheng Skin Disease accept foreigners?

I found that info in a copy of Time Out that's about a year and a half old. It said that Jincheng hospial does accept foreigners but you better book ahead if you want English-language consultation.
I don't know about rapid oral testing.

If you are enrolled in a school, college or university, you will agree to the fact that term paper writing is one of the most time consuming tasks which at times becomes frustrating too.
