I'm really anxious about my recent HIV RNA test. It was done just two weeks after potential exposure, and the result came back as 100. Can you tell me if this is conclusive or if I need additional testing? I'm really worried and could really use your guidance.

I've got a question about my recent HIV test. I took an HIV 1 RNA PCR Quantitative test about six weeks after potential exposure, and the result was "target not detected." Is this result completely conclusive, or should I think about getting tested again later? I'm a little worried and want to be sure everything's okay.

I'm really worried right now. I had a one-time encounter with an escort and we used a condom. I'm super concerned about my chances of getting HIV from this. Can you give me some insight on that? Also, Id really appreciate it if you could recommend which STD tests I should consider getting. I'm pretty anxious about this whole situation.

I've heard that someone who had COVID tested negative after 21 days. Is it okay to meet them and have close contact after two months? Is there still any risk of passing on COVID or anything like that? Just trying to be cautious and understand the situation better.
