Rwanda Zambia HIV Research Group HIV Testing Algorithm. Couples visiting RZHRG voluntary counselling and testing centres were serially tested with four possible HIV rapid tests. Discrepant results were identified as one positive and one negative result. Results not clearly positive (weak band or poor agglutination) were classified as indeterminate. Discrepant and/or indeterminate individuals were asked to return for repeat monthly testing. HIV-1 RNA RT-PCR was performed on more challenging cases.
