This is by far the best video I have seen on this subject, clearly presented, easy to understand and very informative. Helped me a lot to understand my testing options. Thank you 👍🏽

Quick question, after HIV exposure If a course of PEP had been started within 72 hours. Would the HIV test be accurate at day 10 and 28, or would the PEP have suppressed the HIV virus and produce a false negative positive reading ?

I've had 2 blood transfusions (2 pints both the first and second time for a total of 4 pints). I was told that I needed to be tested for HIV and I was so scared.While awaiting those results, i was a bundle of nerves because I heard that one of the ways that HIV is commonly transmitted is via blood transfusions.I was first tested in 1995 and then some years later in 2014 I believe. I was given those transfusions in 1993. Fortunately I tested negative for HIV both times. I was so relieved when I was told my results for HIV were negative. How many times does someone who has has blood transfusions need to be tested, even if those transfusions were given years ago?

[gihanantoun]

How u confirm that a donor blood has not HiV my be he is in the window period?

[nashashbel]

Can anyone answers this question??
Does the different Hiv Strains ( the Types or Subtypes) have an impact on the result of the test?
An Antibody test for Hiv1 type M Subtype B or Non B can as well well detect Hiv1 type O or N ?!?
Is Hiv Antibody Cross Reactive?
I have heard that some type of Hiv like Type O and N can't b detected by the conventional antibody test, is it true?

[Moriz-uf]

If negative antibody test in 3 and 6 months after the exposure then what

[wiicchooo]

I’m an engineering student and I’m pretty good at it but I don’t know how medical students memorize all this stuff

[rdarda]

Tested non-reactive at 26 days should I re-test? Using a test that detects p24

[romicc]

so is it the p24 or the rna that can be detected first?
