I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. The antigen, or viral protein, used to detect hiv is called p24 antigen. This p24 antigen shows up in the blood soon after a person gets hiv. The 4th generation eia test is the standard hiv laboratory screening test used in bc. Ninety-nine percent of these tests will be positive 6 weeks after a person gets hiv. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
