What have we learnt? Part 1 Minimum package of delivery crucial Misunderstanding about MC very challenging Language issues Misinformation Risk compensation Risk to women Excellent opportunity to engage young men about safe sex, HIV in general VCT / HCT uptake much higher than in general population (VCT 35% HCT 70%) Individual conversation important to individualise information and discuss 6 week abstinence
11
What have we learnt? Part 2 Information delivery has to be flexible and dynamic Test messaging outcomes Obtain feedback from community React to research findings Huge interest from parents about their children Information delivery has to be culturally sensitive Photos and drawings Without political backing and will MC will have limited impact -> National campaigns UncircumcisedPartially circumcisedCircumcised
12
Self reported MC status Men were asked “Are you circumcised?” After the interview a physical examination was done to which they consented at the beginning of the interview Physical examination was done by a male nurse 45% of men who said they were circumcised had intact foreskin Possible reasons: Confusion between MC and Initiation Confusion with words used, vernacular Lack of knowledge on what MC is How does HIV compare in these groups?
13
HIV (%) and circumcision status 13 ‘’Circumcised’’ with foreskin Uncircumcised PRR=0.93 p=0.73 18.8% 20.2%
14
HIV (%) and circumcision status 14 ‘’Circumcised’’ with foreskin Uncircumcised PRR=0.48 p=0.002 18.8% 20.2% 9.5% ‘’Circumcised’’ without foreskin Thus, self reported MC status is a VERY unreliable indicator
