Tsvangirai avoids HIV testing

Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai was one of the many high-profile politicians who chose not to participate in a voluntary and symbolic HIV/Aids testing and circumcision initiative by members of Parliament. Tsvangirai’s coalition partner, President Robert Mugabe, was away in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil for a UN summit when the initiative took off. Those who chose to participate in the HIV drive included Tsvangirai’s deputy Thokozani Khupe and Speaker of the House Lovemore Moyo, who both declared their status soon after.
