Description
Additional poster text: info+ Bei Menschen mit HIV gelten besondere Dosierungs- empfehlungen für die Syphilis-behandlung, außerdem schreitet bei ihnen eine unbehandelte infektion schneller fort- bei einer Syphilisdiagnose ist daher ein HIV-Test sinnvoll. [For people with HIV, special dosage is recommended to treat Syphilis. It is a step closer to treating the infection quickly. When diagnosed with Syphilis, an HIV test is useful.]
Poster shows a topless male figure standing in the dark. Because symptoms of Syphilis are unnoticed, it is similar to when a person is left in the dark.
Date on back of poster, 2004, reflects when the vendor received the copy later acquired by the UCLA Library.
Poster held by Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library. History & Special Collections, Collection no. 306, item GW040.
