3 vs 6 months
Hello to all,
I just had a quick question. I was on the phone with the CDC and they claim that 3 months is 97% conclusive, and that you should always get tested again at 6 months. I mean why would someone take 6 months? I thought 3 months is done and over with? I would appreciate your kind response.

what about someone who has been co infected with other virus or an hepatitis virus such HCV or HBV. Is the Hiv window period still valid at 3 months ?
Thanks for the info, but believe me when I tell you that is what they (CDC) told me. Im not making this up. the phone number i called was 1-800-367-2437. The individual stated what Ive stated above. But I will go by the 3 months as you have stated. thank you for your kind help.
