Dear user. Antibody/Antigen Combination Tests. The CDC recommends these blood tests. They can detect HIV as soon as 20 days earlier than antibody screening tests. They check for HIV antigen, a protein called p24 that's part of the virus that shows up 2-4 weeks after infection, as well as HIV antibodies. Take care.
