To all the hiv experts. I am a doctor. But, I need help with this. 4 years ago (3 years And 7 months kinds) I had a possible exposure to HIV while drawing an unknown status females blood who later on died due to meningitis and was found out to be HIV positive. I have tested myself repeatedly after the incident and my results, last done in Jan 2018 have turned out to be negative. Should I move on?

From what you say it is not possible that you got infected. As you know ONLy if her blood entered your body is that you have any chance. Moreover one sigle bloodwithdrwal may not infect the doctor or nurse easily as we fear. You can do a 4th generation Combo test and feel secure and always use gloves whether the person is infected or not A 4th .-generation tests, introduced in the late 1990s, are ELISAs which test for both HIV antibodies and p24 antigen. It is essentially a third-generation ELISA, to which is added an ELISA for p24 antigen. They may also be called combined antigen/antibody tests.
