Question about HIV test in Vietnam

Hello all,


Do you know any information about HIV test in Vietnam. I took HIV ag/ab Combo test at 12 weeks after exposure, it’s negative. I don’t know what’s generation of the test.

Do you think that test’s result is reliable? Do I need more test?

In Vietnam, some doctor still suggests testing at 6 months after exposure, some others say 3 month.

Thank you.

The US does not use combo "DUO" tests. You test is conclusive.
