Sir i had safe sexual intercourse with a prostitute but literally regretting about it now sex with them is not worth the risk and got it tested for STD's my doubt is whether the test for hiv is antibody or antigen or both i called the hospital and they said they're not very sure about the testing methodology but what they said was it's not elisa but all the process is done inside a machine
