Patient's question:
After going to the hospital for a pre-surgical three-item check-up, the results for syphilis, HIV, and hepatitis C were all negative. What kind of help do you need: Hello, are these test results accurate? How can the possibility of transmitting syphilis or HIV be completely ruled out?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis C and syphilis can be ruled out, and HIV is also almost ruled out. Currently, regarding the exclusion period for HIV infection, if diagnosis is implemented through antibody screening, if it remains negative after one year of high-risk exposure, it can be excluded. However, generally speaking, most people will produce enough antibodies to be detected within five months if they are infected, so you can also basically rule out HIV infection.
