Nearly conclusive: These results are nearly 100% conclusive -- almost certainly you do not have HIV. For 100% certainty, have another antigen-antibody (4th generation) blood test at 6 weeks. Stay relaxed in the meantime: it is exceedingly unlikely that result will be positive.

Hi. How accurate/conclusive is a negative result of HIV RNA (early detection test) taken 4 weeks post exposure? My exposure was pretty low risk as told to me by my doctors. I will obviously be taking other follow up tests as time goes by. Thank you.
