Secondary objectives:

  • To evaluate the uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis
  • To assess retention in the study
  • To evaluate client HIV knowledge
  • To describe HIV prevalence and characteristics of individuals newly diagnosed with HIV
  • To describe characteristics of individuals at risk of HIV infection

Read the detailed description

Testing and counseling for HIV, syphilis and other sexually transmitted infections is provided to consenting individuals.

Components: interactive counseling program, self sampling (finger prick) under supervision, questionnaire (on a tablet computer) to assess risks of HIV acquisition, understanding of HIV transmission routes and pre-exposure prophylaxis, willingness to take pre-exposure prophylaxis if at risk of HIV, and satisfaction with regard to services provided.

Referral to appropriate care facility of participants diagnosed with infection. HIV negative participants with significant risk of HIV are advised to come back for HIV retesting within 3 to 6 months and informed about pre-exposure prophylaxis.
