HIV Seroconversion Study 2007 - 9

The Seroconversion Study collects both quantitative and qualitative data from mainly homosexual men who have recently been diagnosed with HIV. Men are referred to the online questionaire through clinics and HIV organisations providing services to men who are newly diagnosed. Men completing the online questionaire volunteer for the more extended depth interview. To date, there have been 155 completed questionaires, across five states, including over twenty who have also completed depth interviews.
