2	No selective reach	Not achieved (Table 3)
3	70% first-time HIV testers^a	Not achieved: • Not corrected: 65.4% (n = 83/127) • Corrected^b: 52.8% (n = 67/127)
4	80% not recently tested for HIV (i.e., > 12 months)^c	Achieved: • Not corrected: 80.0% (n = 28/35)^d • Corrected^b: 87.3% (n = 48/55)^d
5	HIV positivity of 0.33–0.66%	Achieved: 0.75%; 95% CI: 0.02–4.09% (n = 1/134)

CI Confidence interval
^aAmong all participants tested for HIV at the test events and that had information on HIV testing history
