Q: can a autoimmune disease cause false negative hiv test with 4th generation at 24 weeks ? and can tinea versicolor affect the results or no?

: Autoimmune disorders are known to cause false positive HIV tests. I'm unsure whether tinea versicolor can, but this fungus infection certainly can occur in hiv patients.
