FDA considers over the counter HIV home test
The FDA Blood Products Advisory Committee will review a kit that lets users swab the mouth and insert a fluid vial sample to detect HIV antibodies within minutes. If approved, it could enable private at home testing but raises concerns about lack of professional support and the need for safeguards and counseling access. About 1 million Americans are believed to have HIV, with nearly 300,000 unaware of their status.

City seeks state funds to rework the East Hills entrance near the business park by extending Franklin Road and adding a new signalized intersection.
