dc.description.abstractRural Eastern Cape has been noted as recording counter statistics to the national South African HIV and AIDS prevalence levelling off. The role of Voluntary Counselling and Testing (VCT) as a major preventive programme and the perceived barriers that would prevent rural adolescents from using it were explored at a high school in the Eastern Cape (N=l 78). About 20, 8% of the adolescent respondents in grade 10, 11 and 12 self reported that they had been tested while 79, 2% had not been tested and 55, 1 % reported that they had never heard of VCT before.
