A randomly-selected cohort of HIV discordant (N=960), concordant-negative (subset of N=960) and concordant-positive (N=480) couples is followed in Nyando district, western Kenya. Every six months for two years, participants are tested for HIV using rapid HIV assays, rapid urine pregnancy tests are conducted, and they complete audio computer-assisted self interviews. This project also collects dyad interviews (N=30) and 12 focus group discussions (among HIV-negative males, HIV-negative females, HIV-positive males, HIV-positive females), conducted at baseline and at month 18.
