What are probabilties to have hiv after testing negative in a 4th gen elisa 30 days after exposure?

Need additional test: Most people will develop a positive test within 8 weeks following exposure. But... At 30 days the number is significantly less. Need to repeat test at 3 and 6 months to be absolutely certain. In the meanwhile be absolutely safe in your sex.
