Questions and instructions

Literal question
ADULT RESPONDENT CONSENT FOR DBS COLLECTION
305) ASK CONSENT FOR DBS COLLECTION.

As part of the survey we also are asking people all over the country to give blood for HIV testing. HIV is the virus that can lead to AIDS. The IHV testing is being done to see how many people have HIV in Angola.

For this HIV testing, we need a few 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 we take your blood. No names will be attached so we will not be able to tell you the test results. The results are strictly confidential and no one else will be able to know your test results either.

If you want to know whether you have HIV, I can provide you with a list of nearby Health Units offering counseling and testing for HIV.

(NAME) has any questions?
Do you accept or not to take the blood test for HIV?
