HIV iCare Test Kit

[philphil81]

Hi guys,

from my previous post of protected sex with a mexican girl I have since taken a Home HIV test, I used the iCare HIV test kit, well two of them and they both came out negative.  I was just curious if anybody knew the brand and has heard that it is a good one to use.  It says it is 99% accurate and was curious if this is true.

Thanks

It's not approved unless it's home access collection kit.

[philphil81]

it says its FDA Approved, does that make any difference?

from what i'm reading, it was fda approved a couple of weeks ago.

Not for home use it's not

"The HIV home test kits are USAID and FDA approved with a 99,8 % sensitivity and accuracy rate."

[RainLover71]

Home access is the only approved home test kit.

I was wondering is it safe can it cause any infection for hiv

Are you asking if the TEST can cause HIV infection?  If so, absolutely NOT.  If there were a test manufactured by anyone that could cause HIV infection, it would be pulled off the market immediately, and the makers would be sued to the ends of the earth.
