HIV testing day in Mulanje: 41 people tested
A talk, a quiz and free HIV testing in Mulanje. 41 people were tested, and more than 40 were still waiting when the day ended.
On Saturday 19 March 2016, MASYAP visited Mulanje, just outside Blantyre, to offer HIV testing and counselling.
The day began with a talk on HIV by Kaamila, MASYAP’s Youth and HTC Coordinator, followed by a quiz to check what people had learned. Correct answers won prizes such as soap, noodles, cereal and tinned fruit, and the quiz drew plenty of enthusiastic answers.
- 41people tested for HIV
- 40+still queuing for a test at the end of the day
Because demand was so high, we began looking for funds for a return visit straight away.
