Interviewer: May you explain to me the conversation you had about it [HIV testing]?
Edith: We said that our wedding day is near, and before it is reached, I would love if
we could go for testing so that we can know how our blood is so that we can
have a happy [healthy] family. Then we agreed to go.
Interviewer: Who was saying that?
Edith: It was him but still we both had the same thoughts [idea to test] because these
days you can’t just get married before going for blood testing. (semi-
structured interview, female #16, age 21)
