To get data for the STI Blood Screen, you will need to provide a blood sample and have it tested for the specified pathogens. The sample requirements are as follows:

1. Blood: A blood sample is necessary for the test.
2. HIV182/p24Ag: This is a test for the presence of the p24 antigen, which is a component of the HIV-1 virus.
3. Hepatitis B Surface Antigen: This test checks for the presence of the hepatitis B surface antigen, which indicates current infection with hepatitis B.
4. Hepatitis C Antibodies: This test checks for the presence of antibodies to the hepatitis C virus, which would indicate past or present infection.
5. Syphilis Antibodies (IgG/IgM): These tests check for the presence of antibodies to the syphilis bacterium, which would indicate past or present infection.

The test results will be available the next day. To proceed, you will need to provide the necessary sample and use the code STI_BLOOD when ordering the test.
