A member asked:
What's the accuracy of pcr for hiv after one month of exposure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
100% if positive: Nearly all patients test positive for HIV RNA by one month following exposure. There may be false negatives if the virus is not yet circulating in a high enough titer, but a positive test is nearly 100% accurate.
