A member asked:
If someone has hiv and shows symptoms of hiv will they test positive for it if it's during the window period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contradiction in: terms. Window period is a few weeks after acquiring infection. If there are symptoms of HIV, it is no longer in the window period.
