Default HIV DUO Test at 19 days

Thanks for that really polite, nicely phrased question. The "generic" response I was tempted to give was to delete your question for being so bloody rude.

But, the answer is, yes, it is licensed for reliable diagnostics AFTER 28 days. It will give you some reassurance at 19 days but only that and there are no figures or stats to support that.

Best wishes, Sean
