According to medical director of the Austin/Travis County Health and Human Services Department Dr. Philip Huang, this unusually high number. For all of last year, the department confirmed 6 HIV/AIDS cases in that age group. The cases are confirmed to have been sexually transmitted, rather than acquired by sharing needles. HIV cases are on the rise among young people all over the united states.  Complacency about the disease can be occurring because more people are managing the disease with medications with fewer dying from the disease. Data from a survey of high school student behavior in Texas in 2011 that showed:

• 52 % have had sexual intercourse at least once.
• 54 %  used a condom the last time they had sex.
• 17 % had four or more sex partners.
• 7 % had sex the first time before age 13.

Because most teens can consider themselves invincible it puts them at higher risk. Also, some kids don’t consider oral or anal sex as sex and do not realize that the disease can still be spread this way. For the Austin Texas Area the department’s RBJ Health Center at 15 Waller St. provides confidential evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted infections for $20 that includes testing. It will waive costs for those who can’t afford to pay.  The clinic’s phone number is 972-5430 to make an appointment. People also can call 972-5580 for a free appointment at another location.
