Guidelines for testing HIV, viral hepatitis and other infections in injecting drug users
A manual for provider-initiated medical examination, testing and counselling. There is a recognized need for guidance on providing IDUs with a medical examination and testing for HIV and several other infections on a regular basis. In addition, improving testing uptake in this group would benefit epidemiological surveillance and monitoring as carried out at the national and international level. Treatment and other specialist care are dealt with by indicating referral to appropriate services.
