Final published version, 889 KB, PDF document
Rapid diagnostic tests have revolutionized the HIV response in low resource and high HIV prevalence settings.

As rapid HIV tests are technologies that cross borders and have inscribed within them assumptions about the context of implementation, we set out to explore the (mis)match between intended and actual HIV testing practices in Zimbabwe.
