Orasure/Quick swab

I had a "high risk" exposure(saving you the unsavory details) on apr 5 and went to a clinic on aug 5, the nurse swabbed my upper and lower gums in less than a minute collecting oral fluid. 20 mins later the test comes back negative. How accurate is this reading? And should I move on?

are testing after possible exposure the same as testing after possible infection? To clerify, ive read that at three months using oraquick at any risk will give a conclusive result even if i were to test to 6 months, the results will be solid, is this true? Please help me clerify my situation anyone. Thanks

your test is conclusive
now move on

your test was RELIABLE and CONCLUSIVE, proving that you DO NOT have hiv :)

further testing is not warranted.

accept your negative status and move on with your life.

until you are in a monogamous relationship, where both of you have tested...ALWAYS use condoms.  sex lasts a few minutes...HIV LASTS A LIFETIME.
