Home / Answered Questions / Is a duo test conclusive at 11 weeks and 5 days post exposure. Also along with the duo I had requested an PCR RNA at 11 weeks and 5 days at the same time and both the results were negative. Which for me meant being negative on the antigen part and the antibody part and also the Viral load part. Is there any possibility of a positive later without any further exposure ?

Hi

There would be no need for any further testing. Having the Duo test and the PCR RNA test done at 11 weeks and 5 days and having a negative test for both means that HIV was not passed to you.

Let us know if this does not answer your question or if you have any further questions or concerns.
