A member asked:
Someone told me i 99.9% dont have hiv after testing negative with 4th gen combo test with hiv semi quant- 0.35 at 3 weeks. also negative oraquick at 9 weeks. i dont have to retest at 3 months correct? i was planning on ordering a panel?

Three weeks is too early -- the AgAb (4th gen) test is around 90-95% conclusive at 3 weeks. The Oraquick test is never conclusive; 2-5% of infected people never have positive results. But you don't need to wait 3 months: the AgAb tests are conclusive at 6 weeks. (But skip the "panel". Most tests on "comprehensive" STI test panels are unnecessary or unreliable. HIV and syphilis is all you need.
