HIV voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) services were launched in Egypt in 2005. A study of all functioning VCT centres in Egypt (7 mobile and 9 fixed) aimed to determine the profile of clients and their level of satisfaction to identify strengths and weaknesses in the service. In direct interviews with a sample of 928 clients, the main motive for seeking VCT was risky sexual behaviour (34.2%). More females than males sought services because of partners' risky sexual behaviour. More than 90% of the clients were satisfied with the counselling service. Only 41.4% were willing to discuss the test results with their partners. Male sex, higher education level and attendance at fixed VCT centres were associated with higher satisfaction.
HIV 自愿咨询和检测 (VCT) 服务于 2005 年在埃及推出。一项针对埃及所有运作中的 VCT 中心（7 个流动和 9 个固定）的研究旨在确定客户的特征及其满意度水平，以确定服务的优势和劣势。在对 928 名客户的抽样直接访谈中，寻求 VCT 的主要动机是危险的性行为（34.2%）。由于伴侣的危险性行为，寻求服务的女性多于男性。超过 90%的客户对咨询服务表示满意。只有 41.4%的客户愿意与伴侣讨论检测结果。男性、较高的教育水平和参加固定 VCT 中心与更高的满意度相关。
