I'm dealing with Malaria and my doctor prescribed Falcigo sp kit, but I can't remember the dosage and how long I'm supposed to take it. Could you help me out with this?

I recently got a haircut at a busy barber shop, and I'm kind of worried about something. The barber used a blade that wasn't new on my hair, and when I asked him, he said it had been used on someone elses sidelock and could still be used a few more times.

I'm really trying to understand what a "TARGET NOT DETECTED" result means from an HIV 1 RNA PCR quantitative test. It's been 7 weeks, and seeing that result has me a bit anxious. Does this mean the virus isn't there at all, or could it be something else?
That says you have no infection
