A member asked:
The window period of the new hiv exposure won't make the recent hiv test result negative if you are already being infected long time ago right?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If you have been infected with HIV in the past, then you will exhibit positive antibodies for the rest of your life. New exposures to HIV will not affect this.
