I had an exposure 66 days ago, i took 5 4th gen sd bioline ag/ab tests on days 32,47,54(rapid),54(lab) and 62. all are negative. can i be infected ?

You are probably OK.: The laboratory Ag/Ab test you had at 54 days is very highly sensitive for detection of acute HIV infection. With that being negative, you can breathe a sigh of relief and go about your life. If your exposure was due to unsafe sex, please remember to protect yourself and your future partners by using a condom, every single time.
