reference for statement? Jul 22, 1998 Doctor, Can you cite a peer-reviewed article that supports this statement you made about people who have a measurable viral load but are negative by serology? If this is indeed true, why has the FDA not licensed the test to be used for diagnosis? Thank you. "In > 99% of patients, antibody tests will become positive within three months of infection." Todd Miller, PhD Biochemistry/Molecular Biology |
