Summary 

The 2012 South Africa National HIV Prevalence, Incidence, and Behavior Survey is the fourth in a series of national population-based surveys conducted for surveillance of the HIV epidemic in South Africa. The previous surveys were conducted in 2002, 2005, and 2008. The survey was designed to investigate overall HIV prevalence and incidence, as well as HIV-related behavior and health. It enables the measurement of trends and changes in the epidemic over time, and presentation of essential data for national indicator reporting.

Data were collected with clinical measurements, interviews, focus groups, and observations. Four separate questionnaires were utilized: a household questionnaire, a questionnaire for parents/guardians of children ages 0-11, a questionnaire for children ages 12-14, and a questionnaire for persons ages 15 and above. 11,079 households agreed to participate and 38,431 individuals completed interviews. The survey excluded institutionalized persons.
