The 3rd generation tests have a sensitivity of 99% and a specificity of 99%. This means that 99% of people with hiv test positive, and that 99% of people without hiv test negative. So, if you take the test 8 weeks after being exposed, there is a miniscule chance that the test shows a false positive or a false negative.
