5 weeks antibody test is reassuring but not conclusive. You need to repeat it after another 7 weeks or get HIV Duo done any time now to get a conclusive result

Thanks but can you give me a percentage of the result please.
It is best to relax until you can get a conclusive answer from a test taken at the proper time that diver stated. This is your health, so studying the odds is not going to get you a useful answer. A person can win in Vegas the first time he tries, while people who have been there for weeks get nothing, so stats are not good enough for something this important, and likely will just make you more anxious the more you think. Focus on the fact that the other person might be negative, in which case you had no risk.
