Could you please let me know if it looks superficial and whether I need a tetanus shot or any further treatment? Thank you.

HIV Test after PEP

I am a male seeking an evidence-based assessment of whether my HIV testing is conclusive considering PEP, a second exposure during PEP, and current HIV testing guidelines. Timeline: Possible exposure → started PEP (Vonaday: Tenofovir/Lamivudine/Efavirenz) ~36 hrs later → one dose delayed ~12 hrs on day 3 due to switching dosing time → completed 28 days → second possible exposure occurred 9 days before finishing PEP (PEP not extended). Tests: Negative 4th-gen HIV at 8, 20, 55 days post-PEP; negative quantitative HIV PCR at 20 days post-PEP; negative 4th-gen at 93 days, 183 days, and 9 months after last exposure; negative qualitative HIV PCR at 9 months. Are these results conclusive despite PEP and the second exposure? Does the delayed dose or second exposure change interpretation? Does the PCR testing add reassurance? Is any further HIV testing recommended?
