Respondent-driven sampling is a novel variant of link-tracing sampling for estimating the characteristics of hard-to-reach groups, such as HIV prevalence in sex workers.

We evaluated respondent-driven sampling by comparing estimates from a respondent-driven sampling survey with total population data.
