A reflection on challenges encountered when trying to anonymize or simulate time-to-event data on sexual behavior of HIV-positive adolescents, intended as supporting material for an open access vignette on the statistical reasoning behind one paper using such data. The extremely sensitive nature of the data, combined with the technique's data requirements, make either approach exceptionally challenging.
