HIV Integrated Biological and Behavioural Study (IBBS)

This Integrated Biological and Behavioural Study (IBBS) was undertaken in an effort to better understand the vulnerability of migrant farm workers to HIV infection and AIDS in the commercial farming area of Hoedspruit, within the Mopani Health District of Limpopo Province, South Africa. The study is also intended to provide employers and employees with a more accurate appreciation of the epidemic in their community, and a deeper understanding of the various factors that may exacerbate the risk of HIV infection.
