CDC has published estimates that if a female has HIV, on average the risk to her male partner from unprotected vaginal sex is one chance in 2,500. It's higher in the other direction, i.e. male to female risk for unprotected vaginal averages one in a thousand. The HIV AgAb blood tests ("4th generation", "combo") are 100% conclusive after 45 days, no possibility of false negative results after that.
