I'm going to enlighten you on HIV testing. The current test for HIV that is being used is unreliable. This is a basic HIV antibody test that gives a "reactive" or "nonreactive" result. If a person is infected with HIV and is tested, it may mean nothing due to a process called "seroconversion". What this means is that from the time of infection until the virus is detected in the blood may take months. So, a person may be infected and not know it for months. The person may be tested and get an O.K., yet they are infected and may pass the virus on to their partners. Don't take my word for it, check it out with Quest, Labcorp, or any other lab. I tried to give this info to Channel 8 and Channel 13, so they could inform the public, but they were not interested. So...........There is a test that will detect an acute HIV infection, it is called HIV, DNA, RNA, by PCR, but, it is much more expensive than the regular HIV test....................so, if you have been given an "all clear" test result............it may be wrong. I work in the medical field and i am aware of this........so, my friends.............good luck........bloodsucker
