  • Communication About Microbicide Use Between Couples in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

    Open Access•the MDP team, Mitzy Gafos et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS and Behavior•2014

    The ways in which couples communicate about microbicides is likely to influence microbicide uptake and usage. We collected quantitative data about whether women in a microbicide trial discussed microbicides with their partners and explored communication about microbicides during 79 in-depth-interviews with women enrolled in the trial and 17 focus-group discussions with community members. After 4 weeks in the trial, 60 % of 1092 women had discusse…

  • How effective is effective enough? Opinions of potential end-users of microbicides from a rural South African community

    Mitzy Gafos, M Mzimela et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS Care•2013

    To assess the views of potential end-users of a microbicide in KwaZulu-Natal regarding the characteristics that would justify further development, three focus group discussions were conducted in 2009 with 23 local staff members working on a microbicide clinical trial, 20 former trial participants and 14 Community Advisory Board members not enrolled in the trial, in an area with high HIV incidence and low consistent condom use. All participants ag…

  • The Implications of Post-coital Intravaginal Cleansing for the Introduction of Vaginal Microbicides in South Africa

    Open Access•the MDP team, Mitzy Gafos et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS and Behavior•2013

    Post-coital intravaginal cleansing (IVC) could counteract the protective effect of a vaginal microbicide. IVC less than 1 h after sex is discouraged in most microbicide trials. During a microbicide trial in KwaZulu-Natal, we collected quantitative data on post-coital IVC. We discussed IVC during in-depth-interviews (IDIs) and focus-group discussions (FGDs) with women enrolled in the trial, and during FGDs with community members. Nearly one-third …
