Question

I'm looking at my husband's blood test results, and I'm a bit worried. It says he's rapid positive for Dengue Fever NS1 Antigen. The Antibodies Panel shows IGG as negative but IGM is weakly positive. Plus, his platelet count is quite low, showing 26.0 when the reference range is 150-410. Does this mean he definitely has Dengue? What should we do next?

Question

I'm worried about my friend who had a possible HIV exposure. He got tested at 30 days with the HIV12 antibodies combo test from Dr. Lal Path Labs and it came back negative. Then, he took another test at 45 days with SRL lab, and that was negative too. Is there still a chance he could seroconvert after 45 days? This whole situation has got us both stressed out.
