[Motivations of requests for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection screening at the Centers of Information and Anonymous and Free-of-Charge Screening. Study of 891 cases].

In France, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing is usually performed in centers for information and anonymous cost-free detection (Centres d'Information et de Dépistage Anonyme et Gratuit, CIDAG). In this work, we studied the reasons people ask for HIV testing at the CIDAG in Lyons. Eight hundred and ninety one people were asked to give their reasons. The response ratio was 85% and the sex-ratio 1:1. Seventy-five percent of the people were single. The main motivation was the desire to begin a relationship with another person without using condoms. Nonetheless, we were impressed by the high level of high-risk behaviors. To our knowledge, this is the first study about motivations of outpatients at the CIDAG.
