Free HIV/AIDS tests available for Hispanics?
The Chronicle runs a curious article in one "This Week" section:
Free HIV/AIDS tests available for Hispanics: Service set for two locations on Friday, Saturday
Houston's Hispanic residents will have a chance to get free HIV/AIDS testing Friday and Saturday.
Amigos Volunteers in Education and Services Inc. is providing the tests 9 a.m.-2 p.m. at two locations:
•Friday, Consulate General of Mexico, 4507 San Jacinto; and
•Saturday, Kroger Supermarket, 5610 Gulfton.
Presumably, nobody will be turned away from the free HIV/AIDS test, even though the program is geared towards Hispanics, and this is simply an example of the Chronicle's typically lackadaisical editing and/or unclear writing.
Nobody would expect, for example, a plug for golf-club access for whites only to be featured in the "This Week" section.
