Students to receive AIDS test in Henan province

The education authorities in Henan province said that they will require all local universities and secondary technical schools to include mandatory HIV/AIDS tests during the students' entrance medical examination, cnr.cn reported.

Wu Zunyou, director of the National Center for AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Disease Control and Prevention, said that the test does not violate the nation's policies, but the schools have to protect the students' privacy and help handle the follow-up procedures - if any student is found to be HIV-positive.
