- Hospitals and labs: Ag/Ab combo kits, which detect p24 antigen before antibodies appear.
Reading HIV rapid test results
- Antibody tests can miss a very recent infection during the window period after exposure. Retest as the guideline directs.
- A reactive result is not a diagnosis on its own. Follow the national HIV testing algorithm to confirm.
- Read the result inside the time window on the kit insert.
