Knowledge of <scp>HIV</scp> status among men aged 20–35 years in Lusaka, Zambia: Findings from a pilot time location sampling survey in the “<scp>Yaba Guy Che</scp>” (for the guys) study

The time location sampling survey was acceptable among men, as evidenced by high participation. Overall, 40% of young men did not know their HIV status. A hotspot-driven approach to delivering HIV testing services may prove effective at reaching men. Furthermore, time location sampling surveys should be explored as a tool to evaluate interventions targeting men.

Abstract

The time location sampling survey was acceptable among men, as evidenced by high participation. Overall, 40% of young men did not know their HIV status. A hotspot-driven approach to delivering HIV testing services may prove effective at reaching men. Furthermore, time location sampling surveys should be explored as a tool to evaluate interventions targeting men.
