Home Access accurate as Oraquick?

Home Access accurate as Oraquick?

I see that Dr. Hook stated on his most recent thread that "tests" pick up +ve  persons virtually 95-98% by eight weeks.  Does that mean those Home Access kits with the lancets would do the same thing?

Anyone with experience know this info.?

Both tests are very accurate at 8 weeks.  98% percent sounds about right.

No test is conclusive until 3 months.

You read wrong. Three months is conclusive and you never heard me say any earlier unless someone didn't have a risk and didn't need testing in the first place.
