Figure 3

Breakdown of offspring of HIV patients. There are a total of 118 offspring from the 90 adult HIV patients identified to have offspring. Of these, 74/118 (62.7%) were adequately tested; 19/118 (16.1%) did not require testing or were unable to be tested; and 25/118 (21.2%) were in need of an HIV test. Of these, 10/118 (8.5%) were <18 years of age and were actively pursued for testing. The remaining 15/118 (12.7%) over 18 were encouraged to be tested, but less actively so.
