346) ASK CONSENT FOR DBS COLLECTION FROM RESPONDENT.
As part of the survey we also are asking people all over the country to take an HIV test. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. AIDS is a very serious illness. The HIV test is being done to see how big the AIDS problem is in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
For the HIV test, we need a few (more) drops of blood from a finger. The equipment used to take the blood is clean and completely safe. It has never been used before and will be thrown away after each test. No names will be attached so we will not be able to tell you the test results. No one else will be able to know your test results either.
Location covered by fixed Voluntary Testing Center: If you want to know you HIV status, I can provide a list of [nearby] facilities offering counseling and testing for HIV. I will also give you a voucher for free services for you (and for your partner if you want) that you can use at any of these facilities.
Location not covered by fixed Voluntary Testing Center: In the next few days, the Ministry of Health will send a mobile team to offer HIV testing and counseling services. If you want to know you HIV status, I will also give you a voucher for free services for you (and for your partner if you want) that you can use for this mobile team.
Do you have any questions?
You can say YES, or you can say no to the test. It is up to you to decide.
Will you take in the HIV test?

Description
Definition
For female household members of childbearing age, HWFHIVCONSENT (HA61) indicates whether permission was granted for their blood to be drawn and tested for HIV or, if not, why not.
