Summary

This study tested a new communication strategy to encourage HIV testing in Uganda. The messages focused on how HIV testing can help preserve relationships and build healthy families, especially with the availability of PrEP (a pill that prevents HIV). Over 7,600 people from two hospitals took part. The goal was to see if this approach was feasible and acceptable, and whether it increased testing among partners.
