Is unigold test for HIV reliable?
Q: What is a unigold test for HIV? How reliable is it after 6 months of risky exposure? Is it advisable to go for it?
A:It is one of the spot tests. These are pretty good provided that they are correctly used and stored. After 6 months if the test is negative, you can rest assured that you have been lucky and have not got infected. If the test is positive, please get another test repeated. Never believe a positive result from a single test. Always get it confirmed with a second test. Please avoid risk exposure. It is the only way to be safe. If you cant, use a condom but remember that the condom confers about 80 - 85% protection.
