How reliable of 4th gen at 45 days
I (male) had risk with a massage therapist 45 days ago. I took PEP 4 hrs after the risk and finished the 28-day course. Today (day 45 of exposure), I brought him to get blood test. The results HIV 4th gen. Ab/Ag Alere Combo-, Anti-TP Syphilis -, HBV HBsAg Alere - and Anti-HCV Bioline -.
1. Do these test results cover the date that I had risk with him?
2. Do I need to worry about HIV and other STDs?
3. Am I 100% free from HIV?

If your partner tested negative 45 days after your encounter, your partner definitely DID NOT have HIV at the time of your encounter, and you can move on from this event.

May I ask further questions. Is it possible to get false HIV Negative/Non-reactive fr. 4th gen. and NAT PCR blood test of this massage therapist who have been on Prep for a year?
The massage therapist is also male.
