Practical issues	‘It is just a blood test. It is not as if they [people born in Morocco] must drive far away and should take a lot of effort. Yes, you will probably go to the hospital or general practice centre once. Blood will be drawn’ (R19, SGM, F, 38 years)
	‘I think they [eligible people to have a HBV test] will find it [HBV test] a hassle. […] To discuss it with the doctor I think. Many people have troubles with that [language barrier]. […] Then they need a third person and should ask someone else. They would not do that. They will find themselves a burden, so they would let it go. I think’ (R3, FGM participant, F, 45 years)
	‘It is not a cure, so you are investing to know if you have something first. You can compare it to the MOT test (in Dutch: APK). If your car is riding fine, you would rather not have the MOT test, because everything is okay. You have to pay the hours that someone is looking at your car. You are losing money to know that your car is riding fine. It is comparable. However, if your exhaust is broken, and you will have the MOT test, you would pay 100 euros, 200 euros, because you know you must fix the exhaust’ (R6, SGM, M, 21 years)
Fear about the test result	‘If people would say to me: ‘Come, let’s have you tested for hepatitis B’, I would become scared. People rather know nothing [by not testing] then to have the chance to have a bad test result’ (R14, SGM, F, 18 years)

Abbreviations: HBV, hepatitis B virus; MOT, ministry of transport.
