title: Setting up an HIV-testing service with same-day results.
abstract: The advent of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has meant that the speciality of genito-urinary medicine has had to respond promptly and decisively in order to limit the extent of infection. This paper describes how a unit has made its service more adaptable to clients' needs to encourage people to come forward for HIV tests. The results of the study reported demonstrate the demand for this service.
