The estimate is that about 25% of those who have it don't know. They want everyone to get tested regularly and change the system for helping those who learn they have it.

Anybody know how a bureaucracy has come up with a cut-off date of 64? - So that Medicare is well clear of it?
Or is this an insidious form of "big brother" regulating the length of one's sex life?
I'd hate turning 64 (into) or turning out of 64 and having to stop enjoying younger women.

It is high time we get over the stigma of testing and get on with doing the things that will save lives. Only if we all know who is at risk can we make educated decisions about when and where to have sex.
