Hi, I just read on the body site the link to testing on the main page and there is an article that writes that in New Mexico testing at 2 months is conclusive. Why does New Mexico use 2 months (Sweden does as well) but every where else is 3 -6 months? What is or Why is New Mexico using a different standard of time? Thanks.

According to the WHO, because of advances in testing 6 to 8 weeks is the time it takes people to seroconvert. 3 months is used as just a safety net. I imagine that over time everyone will set the window down to 8 weeks with the CDC being the slowest to change. That's what happened when the window as lowered to 3 months. Doctors, health organizations, and testing facilities were all saying 3 months before the CDC got around to changing their recommendations.
