This study examines awareness and behaviors related to reproductive health and HIV/AIDS among truckers in Jharkhand, India. The study found that more than four in five respondents had heard of HIV/AIDS, but only one in five knew that HIV/AIDS is incurable. Most respondents stated that they would use the services of a male clinic if such a facility were opened. They listed treatment for minor illnesses, screening for HIV and sexually transmitted infections, and family planning as the most desired services.
