Help with understanding my STD Test

I need help understanding my STD results Thanks.

Tests Results Flags Units Ref. Interval Lab   
HIV 1/O/2 Abs-Index Value <1.00 N <1.00 BN   
  
Index Value: Specimen reactivity relative to the negative cutoff.

Hep C Virus Ab <0.1 N s/co ratio 0.0-0.9 BN   
  
                                                 Negative:      0.9
                                                                         .
                     In order to reduce the incidence of a false positive
                     result, the CDC recommends that all s/co ratios
                     between 1.0 and 10.9 be confirmed by a more specific
                     supplemental or PCR testing. LabCorp offers HCV Ab
                     w/Reflex to Verification test #

HSV 2 IgG, Type Spec <0.91 N index 0.00-0.90 BN   
  
                                                Negative        1.09
                    Note: Negative indicates no antibodies detected to
                    HSV-2. Equivocal may suggest early infection.  If
                    clinically appropriate, retest at later date. Positive
                    indicates antibodies detected to HSV-2.

Am I infected or not? Thank you.
