variability of virus
hello doc!
i am really concern about how the variability or the hiv virus limit the elisa test! i got myself tested at the end of 6th month after my exposure and had a negative result. somehow i got the manual of the elisa kit used int the lab. it was stated in the manual that" THERE MAY BE A NEGATIVE RESULT DUE TO THE VARIABILITY OF THE VIRUS" i just wanted to know what it really means.
thanks a lot sir for doing such a good job.
i look foward to your answer.
