Interviewer instructions
This question is used to identify respondents for Qs. 3-7. If the answer is "no" or "doesn't know" skip to Q. 8, drawing a line through the skipped questions.

The purpose of Qs. 3-8 is to obtain information about knowledge of correct ways of avoiding infection with HIV, and to assess the prevalence of misconceptions about how the HIV virus is transmitted. Questions 3, 5 and 7 describe three correct ways to protect from HIV infection. Questions 4 and 6 describe two common misconceptions about how HIV is transmitted. A "no" answer to Q. 8 also indicates that respondents are misinformed about HIV.
