English term or phrase: were about twice as likely as
XXX exposed respondents were about twice as likely as the unexposed, to report having been tested for HIV in the past year.
Los encuestados que estuvieron sometidos a XXX resultaron hasta dos veces ??? (más?) no entiendo a qué se refiere, supongo que por lógica debe ser dos veces más, pero no estoy segura.
Gracias por ayudarme.
