A member asked:
Window period for fourth generation hiv test? 4 weeks enough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nearly conclusive: A very few persons with newly acquired HIV require up to 6 weeks to develop positive antigen-antibody (duo, combo, 4th generation) HIV blood tests. Four weeks is almost conclusive but not quite.
