Hiv seroconversation what is the minimum any test can pick the virus up.. speaking out of context, if someone?


Question:
was infected a month ago and started showing symptoms would hiv show up on the test i am talking about p24 antigen test and antibody test...

Answers:
Hello,

It depends what test

If its a p24 antigen, the minimum day would be 6-10 days but 99.8% accurate after 28 days. this test is used for blood screening

Normal antibody minimum is 3 weeks but some sources has reduced it to 16 days ......

pcr one is 6-10 days of infections......

if your friend's test is negative she is probably negative, ...and it will think about it about 95% of people infected will have hiv detected.......within 3 weeks period......
