Against my better judgement, I had unprotected sex in late April of this year. six and a half weeks later, I went to my county's health dept. and asked for an HIV test (in addition to other STDs).

Has anyone else heard and/or know of the availability of the 4th generation New Architect Hiv ag/ab combo asay test recently approved by the CDC ..? Apparently this will put us in line with the U.K. , Australia and others to be in the forefront of testing .
