HIV test for long-term (3+months) Russian visa?

[Nicole Monnier]

Dear SEELANGS-ers,

Does anyone have recent experience with/knowledge of the HIV test
requirement for long-term Russian visas? The US State Department claims that
any American visitors staying 3+ months needs one, but the university with
which we¹re working claims our semester study abroad students do NOT need to
be tested. Needless to say, the ever-helpful Russian Embassy page is (as far
as I can determine) wholly silent on the subject.

Curiously,

Nicole
