A member asked:
Hello, will take 4th gen rapid hiv (in usa) after 28 days. will it be conclusive after that? or 4th gen blood work & not rapid is conclusive after 28?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, conclusive: The 4th generation HIV tests, which test for both HIV antigen and antibody, detect all HIV infections any time 28 days or more after infection. Official advice and some expert recommendations often play it safe by recommending longer times, but it really isn't necessary. I don't understand your second sentence/question.
