A member asked:
How reliable negative result of p24 antigen and hiv antibody test at 45 days? percent of people get accurate result on the said test by this period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No worries!: This combination of tests is 100% conclusive any time 4 weeks or more after the last possible exposure. Nobody with negative resutls at 45 days is later found to have HIV. So all is well; you can move on without worry. Best wishes and stay safe!
