Questions and instructions

Literal question
READ THE HIV CONSENT STATEMENT TO THE RESPONDENT.

We are also asking people in this survey to help us find out how big the HIV problem is in Zimbabwe. We would like you to take part in the HIV test by allowing us to collect a few more drops of blood from your finger.

This blood will be tested later in the laboratory. We will not keep any name with the blood. Because there will be no name with the blood when it is tested, we will not be able to give you the result of the test and no one will be able to trace the test back to you.

If you want to know your HIV status, I can tell you where to GO TO get tested for HIV.

Do you have any questions?

You can say yes or you can say no; it is up to you. If you say yes, it will help the country to develop programs to fight the problem of HIV and AIDS.

Do you agree to give blood for the HIV test?
