He had unprotected sex and is now freaking out about getting hiv. he's not mentally ready to get tested but wants pep any reference?! 01613

Not enough info: When was the exposure? Does he know if the contact was indeed infected? It is important to realize that HIV infection in 2013 is far from the death sentence of 30 years ago. It is a chronic disease like hypertension and diabetes that is easily controllable.
