A member asked:

20week past exposure with negative duo combo and rapid tests.when is the hiv tests conclusive past exposure?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nucleic acid test: If the last exposure was 20 weeks ago and the 4th generation test is negative, you are unlikely to have HIV infection. To make sure, you should take the HIV nucleic acid test.
