[quote=GUESTLU,510365]as of October 2013 the information in blogs can be confusing, for tourist visas no restricitons (visit http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2010-04/29/content_9788598.htm), for Z visa and work permit, everyone seems to have different ideas and say different things. So far, I had take HIV test within a month of my arrival to apply for residence in China. I tested positive and was asked to take a "confirmation test" which was also positive. The health officers look and sound very knowledgeable and professional. The information is kept confidential as to avoid affecting your stay and work in China, (according to health center, effective since 2007). It is aso confusing the reason for the health check as they found other small "abnormalities". As for for HIV treatment, government owned hospitals would not provide monitoring virus' levels or treatment, even at your own expense. Health officials at the International medical center inform the "patient"/ carrier to seek medical help "in home country" or out of CHina since "private hospitals are not too good".[/quote]
