Interviewer instructions
This question is to ascertain the respondents' own personal opinions and attitudes towards
people with AIDS. We present a situation to respondents, asking them to imagine a
particular scenario. Then we ask them to tell us how they would react to the situation.

Circle the code for the response given. Once again, do not prompt the respondent or
indicate the “correct” answer in any way. If a respondent says she doesn't know, is unsure
or that it depends, circle '9' for 'DK/not sure/depends”.

If a school learns that a teacher has the AIDS virus, but she is not sick, how should
the school handle this information? Should the teacher be allowed to continue teaching at
the school, or should she be removed from her teaching position? We are not asking about
whether or not a teacher has actually been asked to leave a teaching position, but rather,
what is the respondent's opinion about how such a case should be handled; should the
teacher be allowed to continue teaching?
