99.8%: A WHO evaluation of five tests found that each had a sensitivity of 100%.2 A French evaluation of twelve tests found that nine had a sensitivity of 100%. Two tests did fail to identify a single HIV-positive sample (of 669 tested), and were judged to have a sensitivity of 99.8%. These tests were the Vidas Duo and Enzygnost HIV Integral. The samples missed were of subtypes F and C.3
