Participants were asked if they had ‘ever’ tested for HCV and HIV at their baseline interview, and if they had tested ‘in the past 12 months/since last seen’ at subsequent interviews. Those who responded ‘yes’ were then asked how long ago this test had taken place. From this we derived past 12 month HCV testing (yes, no) and past 12 month HIV testing (yes, no).

We report self-reported test results among those responding ‘yes’ to having tested in the past 12 months.
