Stupid questions about testing

[fret1]

I am getting a rapid HIV test and when I called my local health dept. for an appoitnment, the person said it is an oral swab.  So my questions are:

1-Do they typically use the oraquick method when doing oral swabs?
2-Do they do the finger ***** in conjunction with the swab?
3-Is this test accurate?
4-Am i going to get my own little testing kit? i.e. is it one piece of equipment that they use and they just change swab part for everyone? ( in know, stupid question but i can get a little paranoid)

thanks
