Why are you donating blood if you are fearful of HIV? Donating blood is not to be used as a testing center.

No it does not affect the test.

think this is an example of a language barrier.

i "think" what he is saying is that he went and had a blood test...not donating blood to a blood bank/hospital.

i made 3  tests before and the last one was after 121 days which came back negative. i was afraid to donate blood but the dr told me that they will not prosecute me if i have HIV or not. also, he was pretty sure that i don't have the infection. My purpose of donating blood was for testing for STD. I told you it's a very expensive , that's why i did that.

Yes they would have prosecuted you and still could if they knew your story.

All the doctors that i made an HIV tests at their clinics said that the only way for me to accept the result is to donate blood at a blood bank.. If they weren't sure of my status, they wouldn't have suggested that. It was the only way to feel comfort ..I did before donating blood 3 HIV tests and they came back negative. The last test was after 120 days from the exposure.
