No. ARS symptoms are not standalone which means a person who has ARS symptoms will not get only fever etc. Its all comes together. Hence HIV is considered as asymptomic.

Hi,

Firstly, durability of a condom has nothing to do with the country that produce them.

Secondly, a condom failure is visible to the eyes as it tears of largely.

Fever etc is general illness so having it doesnt mean you are infected with HIV.
