A member asked:

Please help baby 2 mths old blood test positive for something "retrovirus" can't get hold of doctor for more info until monday what could it be?

Don't ask yet: It was a mistake to give you this partial information, so it is likely that the information itself is mistaken. Don't pursue this until you are able to get an accurate answer from the physician; if it is serious, he/she will probably schedule a face-to-face meeting.
