GetCheckedOnline - Online STI Check in BC

New initiative by the BCCDC to lower the barrier for STI screening. STI is the new term for STDs to emphasize that most of the time, there are no signs or symptoms.

GetCheckedOnline allows you to print out your own lab requisition and see your test results online. At this time, it's invitation only so you have to go to the BCDC STI Clinic to request access a promo code.

Or you can look for the Just Makes Sense posters and postcards with promo codes at various bars, clubs and businesses in Davie Village, or click on the banner ads on websites and apps like Grindr, Squirt and Scruff.

 

These blood tests are useless. Window dressing the process by making the requisition printable is so much pap. If they can't find Lyme disease, they can't find many sti's as well. Trust me on that. #false security

 

@flutterby you are welcome to spend thousands of dollars at the naturopath for unproven blood tests based on pseudoscience instead.

 

Superior microscopy for sti's ie. Darkfield, isn't being done anywhere. Where am I suggesting in my post that people go to a Naturopath for serology? It's easy to see with the naked eye, Spirochetes via Live Blood Analysis where blood tests are negative. There's nothing 'pseudoscience' about Live Blood Analysis....go away you ignorant, medical-system-shill.

The problem is the useless blood tests, not that people can't get a requistion. Stop with these band-aid b.s. initiatives.

 

You can sign up without a promo code with this email invitation link: https://getcheckedonline.com/_layouts/GCBC/Pages/Account/InvitationCode.aspx?uc=bWK15B32V 09RDir9IDGCBJpW9p4rR1ahvmjQ1sMz0Y=

Fill in your information and then they ask you some questions which you can decline to answer. After they suggest things you should get tested for. You can uncheck items or add items if you want. It didn't suggest Hepatitis C for me though and I had no option to add it. Strange.

 

This is a truly fantastic idea! Hopefully making the testing process more accessible as such will help curtail the spread of the applicable STIs!

(Of course, one must still visit a participating lab for sample collection and analysis. That'll be the case until and unless someone is eventually able to develop a broad, affordable, disposable lab-on-a-chip assay device comparable to a home pregnancy test for common STIs.)

 

They have these for HIV similar to a diabetic capillary sugar check. I demoed one for work at one of the community youth clinics. You still have to see a physician or a nurse though I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes available over the counter one day.

 

... the title of this thread has me baffled. unless i've been transported into the future, i didn't think you could do a blood test through your computer or mobile phone ...
