My last test at GMHC oraquick advance slaiva 6 months and 20 days. or 28 weeks and 6 days. I had antobodies for Hep B and lso the nurse told at my 3 months oraquick test that i had herpes 1. If i was infected, can these two things that showed up in my blood can delay seroconvertion? 28 weeks and 6 days is not enough time for hiv antibodies to be deetcted my oraquick advance saliva version? Is tehre ant strain or vih subtype that can be be detected w. oraquick advance? I'm planning to have a kid, but i do not want to do any harm to my wife and my son/daughter.
6 months and 20 days is not enought?
Oraquick Advance- Test thta used in NJ...CDC told me that it's fda approved..3 months conclusive...6 months 100% b/c some people take 6 mons to dvelope antibodies.

Last test 06.27.08---6 months and 20 days from 12.07.08....Test Negative! What do you think???

Answer
Dear Omar:

Peace on you and yours.  What I think is that your HIV testing results are consistent evidence that you are not infected with HIV.
Most of the testing today is accurate at six weeks; the repeated negative testing suggests strongly that there is no HIV infection.

Peace.
