Is a negative oraquick at home accurate after a risk 17-18 years ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A negative result is highly reassuring, but the oral fluids test misses some infections. For 100% conclusive results, you need a lab-based blood test. However, if you are feeling well, almost certainly you do not have HIV. Most people infected that long ago would be dead by now, or certainly very ill for many years.
