for a police officer I'm sure they are checkling for those. Your health affects their overall health premiums so if it's likely that you will need medical help over and above the average amount one would need, it may be a factor in the hiring process. For a police officer, I'm surprised they haven't already asked you if you have had/or have and STD. They are usually pretty thorough in the interview process.

Yes, I’d image they would check for HIV along with other health factors, don’t worry you’ll be ok. I wish you the best of luck. Signed, You’re Good Friend. -Ryan M

A standard complete blood count(CBC) and urinalysis(UA) does not check for HIV or STDs. But: both STDs and HIV can be checked for with urine and blood obtained for a CBC and a UA. They are just different tests. In a normal doctor's visit, you should definitely be able to ask what tests they are running on the blood and urine you provide.

In USA, people can't legally be tested for HIV unless they give written consent for the test.
