HIV Rapid test

[penpen999]

I'm going to take a 6 weeks HIV test.   I was wondering if there was a difference between the oral vs blood rapid test as far as accuracy.

There are no HIV tests marketed or sold to give a conclusive test result earlier than 3 months.

by 8 weeks 98%  of infected person will test positive by six weeks it's about 95% but for a conclusive result you have to retest after 12 weeks.

also, would there be any difference if i waited till 8 weeks to test rather than 6 weeks?
