Music: Jiving with Science CD 3: Uhlelo lukaMroza - benefits of regular and repeated HIV testing, the management of HIV as a chronic disease

Authors: Astrid Treffry-Goatley, Mduduzi Mahlinza, John Imrie



Introduction: CD 3, or Uhlelo lukaMroza (Mroza Show) focuses on regular and repeated HIV testing. Since this theme concerns a wide cross section of the population, the CD is targeted at more of a mixed audience. It features a selection of maskanda, kwaito and gospel songs and is endorsed by the Ukhozi FM radio DJ, Mroza Buthelezi. The narrative is framed within a radio talk show hosted by Mroza. A local nurse is a special guest on the show and answers questions about the benefits of regular and repeated HIV testing, the management of HIV as a chronic disease and the availability of HIV testing facilities and ART in the community.
