During the marathon in Kazan, anyone could take an HIV test for free and anonymously

4 May 2026, Monday

While thousands of runners were warming up before the start, a mobile point of the Republican AIDS Center was deployed at the event site of the Kazan Marathon 2026.

The staff had a special and important task — they offered the guests and participants of the marathon to undergo rapid HIV testing free of charge and anonymously.

The conditions are simple: no passports, , no queues. Just come up, ask a question, if there is one, and take the test. Just 15 minutes — and you have the result in your hands. Complete confidentiality is guaranteed.
