Antibodies
Oct 18, 2009

A family of five came to my clinic with signs and symptoms suggestive of HIV infection in a west African country.All their sera were negative for HIV 1 and 2 antibodies but all have low CD4 counts for their environment.The father had tuberculosis which responded to anti tuberculous drugs.They keep falling sick but i tell them they do not have HIV.What do you advise me to do?

Response from Dr. Holodniy

Seems like the differential diagnosis might be pretty broad and would be difficult for me to speculate what might be going on.
