He sought HIV testing at the Public Health–Seattle & King County (PHSKC) Sexually Transmitted Disease Clinic, Seattle, Washington, 1 week after having unprotected anal intercourse with an HIV-positive male partner. His fingerstick blood specimen was HIV-negative by ...References1. Stekler J, Swenson PD, Wood RW, Handsfield HH, Golden MR.
