As Pennsylvania’s drug problem grows, so does the chance of a possible HIV and Hepatitis C outbreak.

In order to prevent an outbreak from happening, the Pennsylvania Department of Health is providing free testing.

On Wednesday February 22nd, there will be a Hepatitis C screening event at the Cambria County Drug and Alcohol Building from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.

Whether your are underinsured or uninsured, the screening will be free.

The Health Department also wants to remind you that HIV and STD testing are available Monday- Friday at the Cambria County State Health Center.
