Smart girl!
Kelly Osbourne says she gets tested for HIV annually to make sure she has a clean bill of health.
Ozzy Osbourne‘s daughter was first tested for the disease when she was 17 in order to obtain her green card to stay in the U.S., but now insists on doing it annually.
Speaking on World AIDS Day on Wednesday, December 1, the star said:
“When people say things like, ‘It’s never going to happen to me’ or ‘I’ll never get it’, they’re less inclined to protect themselves the way that they should. It’s so simple. All you have to do is wear a condom. It’s not like anyone is asking you to do something really difficult and hard.”
Right on, Kelly!
Something that is so simple is so often ignored, which not only endangers your life, but others as well.
We encourage you to follow her example and get tested!
