A man who has been diagnosed with HIV after a one-night stand claims he didn't know the virus was 'still around'.
Jay Hawkridge, 29, from Leeds, thought HIV 'was a thing of the past', but that was before he contracted the virus after having sex with a guy he had been chatting to in 2019. The 29-year-old became seriously unwell a few days after having sex.
His body begun to break down, he caught a fever and started feeling nauseous. Jay took himself to A&E where a blood test came back negative for HIV.
