  In an adult, a positive HIV antibody test result means that the person is infected, a person with a negative or inconclusive result may be in the “window for 4 to 6 weeks but occasionally up to 3 months after HIV exposure. Persons at high risk who initially test negative should be retested 3 months after exposure to confirm results

I´m from Brazil, so the brazilian healthy departament says in very rare cases maybe it take longer at 120 days, however they don´t know when and where it happened(there is not a registred case by them) . I think it was in the very past. it´s so scared. I know the PCR RNA test are not stand alone test, however, I had one at 87 days + antibody/antigen test 4fourth generation that´s enough?
Sorry bother you
