Outcomes of a model for re-testing HIV-negative index contacts in Sedibeng, South Africa

Conclusion: Revisiting index clients with a previous negative HIV test result is worthwhile, creating an opportunity to identify undiagnosed PLHIV and high-risk people for PrEP. The high positivity rate highlights the importance of providing a sero-neutral approach to HIV testing, including integrating preven tion messaging and linkage to PrEP services.
