Can HIV Be Cured?

The HIV RNA Early Detection test differs from the HIV Antibody test in that it can provide conclusive results as soon as nine to eleven days after you believe you may have been exposed to the virus. Anybody of any age can become infected with HIV. You are considered at high risk if you have engaged in unprotected sex, unprotected anal sex, or if you have ever shared needles with anybody. It is possible for you to be carrying HIV without having any symptoms. If you have any doubts about whether or not you are infected with HIV, getting tested for it is the only way to know for sure what your status is.
How Long Does A HIV Test Take?
