Description
This was a randomized, controlled trial in which 5012 participants seeking medical or health services from nine STD clinics were enrolled in a study comparing 1) on-site HIV rapid testing with brief, participant-tailored prevention counseling vs. 2) on-site HIV rapid testing with information only. The purpose of this study was to explore whether the provision of counseling reduced risk behavior and sexually transmitted infections over time. In addition to HIV, participants were screened for sexually transmitted infections at the baseline visit and the 6-month follow-up visit.
